1893Automatic train-brake patent: if the engineer runs past a danger signal, the brakes apply themselves. Fenelon B. Brook, US 513,872.
See also: F-16 Auto-GCAS: it warns the pilot, then takes the controls if he does not act.
“the engineer fails for any reason to heed the signals set for his guidance ... the automatic opening of said pipe to reduce the pressure in every case where the engineer should fail to do his duty”
A patent, so the year is when it was filed, not proof that one ran. The computer form the table knew before is the F-16's Auto-GCAS (2014).
Someone opened the dated document itself. The source.

Bodies
The act stays put while the hardware changes. These are some of the forms Catch takes.
