	Slate Transport (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)

		It was followed by the Dinorwig tramway in 1824, and the Nantlle tramway in 1828.
		The Padarn tramway for Dinorwig Quarry was completed in 1843, and the railways to Porth Penrhyn and Y Felinheli were completed by 1852. Of course, with the extension of the national rail network the tonnage of slates carried on the railways increased greatly.
