I went for a cycle along the old railway earlier this evening. As I was approaching the long railway tunnel I noticed that there was a fire engine at the top of the embankment. A dog was barking and a woman was trying to find it. I thought no more about it and continued on to Rosewell. On the way back, as I was coming out of the tunnel I glanced to my left. A man was sitting on the ground and a few feet away from him, a horse was lying in a crumpled heap on the ground Crying or Very sad

No, I didn't want to stop and ask. However, I can only guess that it is possible the horse fell down the embankment (there's quite a lot of growth) and those looking after it called the fire brigade. They probably then lowered it down to the foot of the embankment shortly before I arrived back from my cycle. Whatever happened, it is quite sad that the horse has died.
