Rhiwbach Tramway
The Rhiwbach Tramway was a Welsh industrial, 1 ft 11+1⁄2 in (597 mm) narrow gauge railway connecting the remote slate quarries east of Blaenau Ffestiniog with the Ffestiniog Railway. It was in use by 1862, and remained so until progressively closed between 1956 and 1976. The route included three inclines, one of which became the last operational gravity incline in the North Wales slate industry. The tramway was worked by horses and gravity for much of its existence, but a diesel locomotive was used to haul wagons on the top section between 1953 and its closure in 1961.

Others had private lines that stretched from the quarry to transhipment points on local railways, rivers, roads or coastal ports.

Uncorrelated noise
The term uncorrelated noise refers to a noise source being uncorrelated to a signal or another noise source. White noise in particular, due to its randomness, is uncorrelated to any other signal and is also serially uncorrelated (i.e., later values of it have no correlation to earlier values). Thus, "uncorrelated noise" is sometimes imprecisely used synonymously with "white noise". However, in general, noise sources can have any noise spectrum and may or may not be correlated with each other (in practice different noise sources are usually uncorrelated). This situation is sometimes described as "uncorrelated colored noise".

Noise generator
A noise generator is a circuit that produces electrical noise (i.e., a random signal). Noise generators are used to test signals for measuring noise figure, frequency response, and other parameters. Noise generators are also used for generating random numbers.
