Never really thought about this one. I voted 1901 anyway seemed like a good guess.

Pay attention to what you read here, you may actually answer someone's question!

I know that there were a few out there long before they became the norm. So I guessed 1894.

Nah, it has to be before 1905, the entry said something about them coming into use on american railroads in 1905. So it would have to be before. I say 1901....
