Haven't been there for years either, but I did check out the dead-end tunnel (I think the other side of the blockage is where the flats now are), back in my UUU days.

Dont know about the tunnel being blocked when i was there i walked it from the Dumbarton rd end at Partick West stn right through to the station at the other end couldnt get any further as it was built on from there on
impressive tunnel entrance right under a tenement iirc

Takes me back to the time when a group of us started at Dumbarton Rd and walked through them all until we came out in the middle of Ruchill park (or Golf course - I forget which).
We had to make occasional detours (like going around Maryhill shopping centre), but otherwise were able to keep to the track bed the rest of the way.

Is that the entrance looking from Maryhill Rd northwards? Or the exit at the other end?
