Not Quite ... for the ISL, the mediator and three others selected to make up the arbitration board will come from a list of professional labor arbitrators NOT the National Mediation Board roster.
Reference the T&PA Attachment B Section 2 Paragraph F.

Totally seperate process from the NMB. There may be a few ex-NMB mediators on the "list of professional arbitrators" but the majority are just lawyers that are arbitrators for a living and arbitrate many other issues outside the Railway Labor Act.
