When I was a student (Reagan was still POTUS..) I went exploring some of the abandoned railway tunnels on the west side of Glasgow. For those familiar, we started under a restaurant on Great Western Road, near Gartnavel Hospital, tracked North nearly a mile, then emerged near Maryhill. Then we entered another tunnel tracking Southeast, passing through the long-disused Botanic Gardens station and emerged in an old cutting beside Kelvinbridge (across the river from the entrance to the Underground station).
I believe most, if not all of the entrances we used have been closed off now, but there is still a fenced-off area in the Botanic Gardens where the ventilator shafts above the station are.
