Whether there is or not, I'm unsure as I never went down (the station Manager was really really anal about Health and Safety and I wasn't on good terms with him anyway). It's a pitty now though, I wish I'd made the effort to find someone who knew where it was at the time! Rumours always start somewhere so there must be some kind of truth in it.
I also used to run a shop in the St Enoch Centre. I've never heard of the street rumour for underneath Argyle Street. What I do know is that the basement to the St Enoch Centre runs for miles as the delivery lorries actually go semi-underground to unload. I used to get lost hunting for the deliveries. Someone posted pictures earlier in the thread saying they were under Debenhams, it's actually all the one basement for the shops and centre, as I remember the sound of the water pump very clearly. If you were down there too long your ears would be ringing for an hour afterwards!
