Only in the sense that Hornby rivals Amtrak I'm afraid.

I suggest you ask someone returning from holiday in Tyre how they found it. My guess is they will say "Oh it was great".

No, it did not. Perhaps you are thinking of Carthage.

Quote:

Tyre was humiliated, made a vassal state, and had its palace destroyed down to a bare rock,

Wrong.

Quote:

...the modern town of tyre (sur) is not a city-state, it has no KIng, no palcae, no great navy no army, just 15,000 people in a tawdry suburb.

1. Your population figure is wrong - big surprise;

2. According to the prophecy there shouldn't even BE a modern Tyre. The fact that it exists at all is the fatal blow for the prophecy.
