You are correct
Yes... but... railway expertise is not so common. If the strike is big enough, it would take months just to get a skeleton system up and running.
Joe Biden could go the Reagan route and fire their asses. But the air traffic controllers he fired were government employees. The railroad is a private business so that option is out.
...he could "nationalize" the industry like Truman did with the steel mills back in 1952....
