1. Quartile ?
yes, QUAR(ry)TILE = floor slab
RY = Railway Line
cipher (sometimes cypher)
n a secret code; an interweaving of the initials of a name; any person or thing of little value, a nonentity; any of the Arabic numerals; formerly, the character 0
cipher, the trouble with organ is defined by Chambers as "in an organ, continuous sounding of a note not played, due to a mechanical defect"

This was the bit of the clue which really puzzled me, I'd never heard of this definition before.
