The Underground Railroad is not a railroad that is underground, instead, it is referring to a secret passage for slave escaping in safe houses. The conductor of the Underground Railroad could be the person who helps the slave escape, the lines could refer to the road or the passage which the slaves escaped from one safe house to another, the station could refer to the stops they make in the safe houses, and the freight may refer to the slaves that are escaping.
The main reason why Congress worked to keep a balance between the number of slaveholding states and free states is because they wanted to avoid war breaking out between the North and the South. They tried to do this through a series of compromises that ultimately failed.
