In 1904, the Great Way Round had already been beaten to the punch. Quoting from the ORR web-site: "Train protection systems have been under development since the mid-1800s. The first widespread system was developed in 1894 on the North Eastern Railway." The full information is at http://www.rail-reg.gov.uk/server/show/nav.1698 .
