  less volume = less employees, higher fuel cost = advantage

CSX is substantially reducing its operating costs by adjusting to lost volume by reducing trains and crews and support labor, yet is still meeting customer demand. Also, the higher the cost of diesel, the more advantageous for rail vs truckers. When the demand for coal increases this stock will do very well.
