Oh right, maybe I'm wrong about that! I had heard it said by some people involved in infrastructure planning, so thought it was true.

I reckon it might be the case though. The tunnel mouth you mention is one of quite a few lines that ran through there, but it isn't the one relevant to the Strathclyde Tram (and potential future metro / light rail) route. If you look here at a map from 1936, you can see where the line that passed through Maryhill on its way to Possil went directly under where the Tesco car park is. It's a little bit west of the tunnel/line you mention.
