I believe on account of GT's "priority" status or maybe even to increase its stature, it is being shifted from New Delhi to Sarai Rohilla station...sir there are many other extraneous considerations involved...if you want to convey that railway board does not like to play politics and works according to the rule book...then you are mistaken...as far as legendary is concerned GT is certainly legendary...laugh it away was used in the colloquial sense...
