  1. Alternative spelling of farsighted.

    It was in November, 1932, in an endeavour to reduce working costs, that the first diesel railcar was introduced, and it was a far-sighted move on the part of Mr. D. N. McClure, for diesel propulsion on railways was then more or less in its infancy.

    Gavin Johns, chairman of the Swanage Railway Trust, said: "I would like to thank our stakeholders for their far-sighted investment of £5.5 million to re-connect Swanage and Corfe Castle with the main line, which included £1.8m from the Government's coastal communities fund, so we could restore our 1950s heritage diesel trains for running on the main line."
