In some Australian states, "tramway" was historically the legal title of a railway not owned by a state government, as in the Powelltown Tramway or Silverton Tramway. "Tramway" was also commonly used for any light railway associated with a single industry, as in "timber tramway".
In the United Kingdom a tramway is a precise term in law and in regulations for a class of railway that shared a road. While a railway required an act of Parliament to resume private land for its right of way, a tramway could operate on a public road with a permit from local government. The majority of railways operating under this class were passenger tram networks, although some were industrial and at least one example at Weymouth was part of the main railway network and saw full freight and passenger trains traversing the streets of Weymouth down to the quay.
Tramway (arts centre), a theatre and arts complex in Glasgow, Scotland, based in the city's former tram depot.
Hong Kong Tramways, a service running since the 1900s
