Even in India the gas lights have gone into oblivion.There is a proverb, ‘new rupee drives the old rupee’.The same is the case with the gas lights.Thanks to the genius called Edison !!

I remember once going to Glasgow, a Scottish city. I arrived in the early hours of the morning to see the lamp lighter snuffing out the gas lights in the streets. This piece has really brought back memories. A lovely write.

good show of lights or un-light I liked it

I love to collect old oil lamps and it is a delight to see that you have a gas light. They are rather easy to fix, only prob is that if you are inside city limits, they may not let you light it.

I love old gas lights.

Such a nostalgic article! I love gas lamps, oil lamps, candles, and everything inbetween! The older, the better! ^-^
