Hi can anyone tell me if euston underground is where you take train to Glasgow?
It is unclear exactly what you are asking. Trains to Glasgow go from Euston mainline station. Euston underground station is the nearest tube station (together with Euston Square) to Euston mainline station.

No, but it's the nearest Underground station on the Northern Line and then it's up the escalators to the mainline railway station for the (Avanti) Glasgow Central train.

Just for the record, St Enoch is the nearest Glasgow Subway station if you are getting the mainline train from Glasgow Central to London Euston

it was quite obvious that they meant, can you go to Euston on the Underground and then get a train. Your response like the others is very silly.
Not necessarily. That's not what they asked. As its not what they asked, it is then open to interpretation what they meant. How do you know that's what they meant?
If someone said yes, and they turned up at Euston Underground station looking for a train to Glasgow, they wouldn't find it

The answer is no, but trains to Glasgow can be taken from London Euston which is the mainline station above Euston underground station.

Because it's the only plausible interpretation of the query. There's no need to exhaust contorted edge cases.

Yes they would, because they've already demonstrated a willingness to request help, and a simple 'yes' here gets them close enough to a Class 390 for it all to simply work out.

You've obviously never worked with the general public.
