Gomti Nagar station from a one platformed halt station to a six platform mammoth and still construction work going on. Few trains like this one and Jaipur bound start from here. Still not many facilities at the station and it wears a deserted look for the most part since otherwise few trains like LJN-BJU only stop here. That being said, many more trains could be started from here in the future as infrastructure develops.

My train was cancelled the previous week and next week as well. This led to large nos.

It is not called a 'terminal station'. The only proper terminal station here is Lucknow Jn where trains actually terminate due to tracks ending there. All Gomti Nagar has is a few stopping trains and a few initiating trains from here.

Well you could, but it would increase the time it needs for them to exit Lucknow as a whole then. More likely, Railways would shift one or more other mail/express trains to Gomti Nagar first than shifting Shatabdi.

Lucknow Jn has some weeklies to Pune or a Garib Rath to Raipur. Those might be first shifted to GTNR.
