Switching jobs is hard for a ton of reasons.
We also do need people to operate the rail system. "Everybody just leaves and becomes a software engineer" isn't good for society.

With that said, I don’t think this is about everyone leaving as much as it is about forcing the rail industry to capitulate.
But for the aforementioned reasons, this is unlikely to happen, and rail companies know that.
It’s a really sad state of affairs, and I’m not sure what fixes it aside from drastic political shifts during elections, but even that seems highly questionable.
The managers and leaders keep pushing things because they can.
Which is a legislative form of ‘keep working your field peasant, or else.’
I think I know someone that could start working on it.
