ABSTRACT III. DECIDEDLY the most successful application of the electric light in London is at the Cannon Street station of the South Eastern Railway. The Charing Cross station of that
Company has been lit up by the Brush system, and the Bricklayers' Arms goods-yards and sheds by Mr. Crompton's system, so that the South Eastern Railway officials have an admirable
competitive trial proceeding within easy reach of inspection. The Cannon Street station is. lit up by the British Electric Light Company with Gramme machines and Brockie lamps. Access
