NOTE 1. Significant Accounting Policies

Background

CSX Corporation (“CSX” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), based in Jacksonville, Florida, is one of the nation's leading transportation companies. The Company’s rail and intermodal businesses provide rail-based transportation services including traditional rail service and the transport of intermodal containers and trailers.

CSX’s principal operating company, CSX Transportation, Inc. (“CSXT”), provides a crucial link to the transportation supply chain through its approximately 21,000 route mile rail network, which serves every major population center in 23 states east of the Mississippi River, the District of Columbia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec. CSX Intermodal, Inc. (“Intermodal”), one of the nation’s largest coast-to-coast intermodal transportation providers, is a stand-alone, integrated intermodal company linking customers to railroads via trucks and terminals.

Other entities

In addition to CSXT, the rail segment includes Total Distribution Services, Inc. (“TDSI”), Transflo Terminal Services, Inc. (“Transflo”), CSX Technology, Inc. (“CSX Technology”) and other subsidiaries. TDSI serves the automotive industry with distribution centers and storage locations, while Transflo provides logistical solutions for transferring products from rail to trucks. Technology and other support services are provided by CSX Technology and other subsidiaries.

CSX’s other holdings include CSX Real Property, Inc., a subsidiary responsible for the Company’s real estate sales, leasing, acquisition and management and development activities, and CSX Hotels, Inc., a resort doing business as The Greenbrier, located in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all normal, recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the following:

Consolidated balance sheets at March 28, 2008 and December 28, 2007;

Consolidated income statements for the quarters ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007; and

Consolidated cash flow statements for the quarters ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007.

NOTE 1. Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Beginning in 2008, certain items have been reclassified within the income statement. These reclassifications include reclassifying all items within other operating income and certain items within other income into the Rail segment. As a result of this change, CSX consolidated operating income and Surface Transportation operating income will now be the same; therefore, the Company will no longer report separate Surface Transportation results. The Rail segment was not materially impacted by these reclassifications. Certain prior-year data have been reclassified to conform to the 2008 presentation.

Additionally, the Company reclassified all non-locomotive fuel related costs previously included in materials, supplies and other into fuel on the Company’s consolidated income statement so that it now includes all fuel used for operations and maintenance. For first quarters 2008 and 2007, these amounts were $36 million and $25 million, respectively.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these interim financial statements. CSX suggests that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in CSX's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Fiscal Year

CSX follows a 52/53 week fiscal reporting calendar.

The first fiscal quarter of 2008 and 2007 consisted of 13 weeks ending on March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007, respectively.

Fiscal year 2007 consisted of 52 weeks ending on December 28, 2007.

Fiscal year 2008 will consist of 52 weeks ending on December 26, 2008.

Except as otherwise specified, references to quarters indicate CSX’s fiscal periods ending March 28, 2008 or March 30, 2007, and references to year-end indicate the fiscal year ending December 28, 2007.

Comprehensive Earnings

Comprehensive earnings is defined as all changes in shareholders' equity during a period, other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to shareholders (i.e. issuance of equity securities and dividends). For CSX, differences between net income and comprehensive earnings consist primarily of adjustments for pension and other post-retirement liabilities. For first quarter 2008 and 2007, comprehensive earnings were $353 million and $242 million, respectively.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

On March 17, 2008, CSX announced additional share repurchase authority of approximately $2.4 billion. This is in addition to the remaining share repurchase authority under the 2007 program of $600 million for a new combined total of $3 billion. CSX intends to complete all authorized share repurchases by year-end 2009. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by the Company's management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price and other factors. While it is not the Company’s intention, the program could be suspended or discontinued at any time, based on market, economic or business conditions.

Cumulatively since 2006 under various authorized repurchase programs, CSX has already bought approximately $2.9 billion of its outstanding common stock through the first quarter of 2008. These actual repurchases along with the new authorization of $3 billion equal nearly $6 billion expected to be repurchased through 2009.

Total share repurchases under all publicly announced plans were as follows:

	First Quarters
(In Millions)	2008	2007
Number of Shares Repurchased	7	5
Value of Shares Repurchased	$ 300	$ 179

In addition to the new share repurchase authority authorized on March 17, 2008, CSX announced a 20 percent increase to its quarterly cash dividend to 18 cents per share payable June 13, 2008 to shareholders of record on May 30, 2008. This increase followed the 50 percent increase implemented in 2007.

Retained Earnings

During first quarter 2008, CSX's other capital balance was reduced to zero as a result of share repurchases. Since CSX’s other capital balance cannot be negative, retained earnings was reduced by $192 million during the quarter, which represented share repurchases occurring after the other capital balance had been reduced to zero. Generally, retained earnings is only impacted by net earnings and dividends.

Equity Earnings Adjustment

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company determined that an adjustment was needed to correct earnings of an unconsolidated subsidiary accounted for under the equity method. Under the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 99, Materiality and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, the Company has determined that the error was immaterial, both quantitatively and qualitatively, to prior and current periods. The correction resulted in an increase to other income in the first quarter of 2008 of $30 million pretax or $.05 per diluted share. Additionally, other assets increased by $29 million and accumulated other comprehensive income decreased by $1 million. There was no impact on the cash flow statements as the adjustment was a non-cash item, and the income statement impact is expected to be immaterial in future reporting periods.

NOTE 2. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic earnings per share and earnings per share, assuming dilution:

		First Quarters
		2008	2007
Numerator (Millions):
	Net Earnings	$ 351	$ 240
	Interest Expense on Convertible Debt - Net of Tax	1	1
	Net Earnings, If-Converted	$ 352	$ 241

Denominator (Thousands):
	Average Common Shares Outstanding	404,280	437,637
	Convertible Debt	5,717	19,456
	Stock Option Common Stock Equivalents(a)	4,361	5,545
	Other Potentially Dilutive Common Shares	827	538
	Average Common Shares Outstanding, Assuming Dilution	415,185	463,176

Basic Earnings Per Share		$ 0.87	$ 0.55

Earnings Per Share, Assuming Dilution		$ 0.85	$ 0.52

(a)

In calculating diluted earnings per share, SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share requires the Company to include the potential shares that would be outstanding if all outstanding stock options were exercised. This is offset by shares the Company could repurchase using the proceeds from these hypothetical exercises to obtain the common stock equivalent. This number is different from outstanding stock options, which is included in Note 3, Share-Based Compensation.

Table of Contents

CSX CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 2. Earnings Per Share, continued

Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Earnings per share, assuming dilution is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the effect of the following types of potentially dilutive common shares:

convertible debt,

employee stock options, and

other equity awards, which include unvested restricted stock and long-term incentive awards.

Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share, required CSX to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution. The amount included in diluted earnings per share represents the number of shares that would be issued if all of CSX’s outstanding convertible debentures were converted into CSX common stock.

When convertible debentures are converted into CSX common stock, the newly-issued shares are included in the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on a weighted-average basis. During first quarter 2008, $25 million of face value convertible debentures were converted into 1 million shares of CSX common stock. No material conversions occurred during first quarter 2007. As of March 2008, $148 million face value remained outstanding, convertible into 5 million shares of CSX common stock.

Stock options are excluded from the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, when option exercise prices are greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period. In first quarter 2008 and 2007, all stock options were dilutive. Therefore, no stock options were excluded from the calculation.

NOTE 3. Share-Based Compensation

CSX share-based compensation plans primarily include long-term incentive plans, restricted stock awards, stock options, and stock plans for directors. CSX has not granted stock options since 2003. Awards granted under the various plans were determined and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or, in certain circumstances, by the Chief Executive Officer for awards to management employees other than senior executives. The Governance Committee of the Board of Directors approves awards granted to the Company’s non-management directors.

Total pre-tax expense associated with share-based compensation and its related income tax benefit is as follows:

	First Quarters
(Dollars in Millions)	2008	2007
Share-Based Compensation Expense	$ 14	$ 15
Income Tax Benefit	5	6

The following table provides information about stock options exercised.

	First Quarters

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves

Casualty, environmental and other reserves were determined to be critical accounting estimates due to the need for significant management judgments. They are provided for in the consolidated balance sheets as follows:

		March 28, 2008			December 28, 2007
(Dollars in Millions)		Current	Long-term	Total	Current	Long-term	Total

Casualty		$ 157	$ 399	$ 556	$ 157	$ 389	$ 546
Separation		15	84	99	16	87	103
Environmental		42	56	98	42	58	100
Other		31	90	121	32	90	122
	Total	$ 245	$ 629	$ 874	$ 247	$ 624	$ 871

Details with respect to each type of reserve are described below. Actual settlements and claims received could differ. The final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty. Considering the legal defenses available, the liabilities that have been recorded, and other factors, it is the opinion of management that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. However, should a number of these items occur in the same period, they could have a material effect on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity in that particular period.

Casualty

Casualty reserves represent accruals for personal injury and occupational injury claims. Currently, no individual claim is expected to exceed the Company’s self-insured retention amount. To the extent the value of an individual claim exceeds the self-insured retention amount, the Company would present the liability on a gross basis with a corresponding receivable for insurance recoveries. Personal injury and occupational claims are presented on a gross basis and in accordance with SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies (“SFAS 5”). These reserves fluctuate with independent third party estimates, which are reviewed by management, and the timing of payments. Most of the claims were related to CSXT unless otherwise noted.

Defense and processing costs, which historically have been insignificant and are anticipated to be insignificant in the future, are not included in the recorded liabilities. The Company is presently self-insured for personal injury and occupational-related claims.

CSX CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued

Personal Injury

Personal injury reserves represent liabilities for employee work-related and third-party injuries. Work-related injuries for CSXT employees are primarily subject to the Federal Employers’ Liability Act (“FELA”). In addition to FELA liabilities, employees of other CSX subsidiaries are covered by various state workers' compensation laws, the Federal Longshore and Harbor Worker's Compensation Program or the Maritime Jones Act.

CSXT retains an independent actuarial firm to assist in assessing the value of personal injury claims and cases. An analysis is performed by the independent actuarial firm semi-annually and is reviewed by management. The methodology used by the actuary includes a development factor to reflect growth or reduction in the value of these personal injury claims. It is based largely on CSXT’s historical claims and settlement experience. Actual results may vary from estimates due to the type and severity of the injury, costs of medical treatments, and uncertainties in litigation.

Occupational

Occupational claims arise from allegations of exposures to certain materials in the workplace, such as asbestos, solvents (which include soaps and chemicals) and diesel fuels or allegations of chronic physical injuries resulting from work conditions, such as repetitive stress injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome and hearing loss.

The Company retains a third party specialist with extensive experience in performing asbestos and other occupational studies to assist management in assessing the value of the Company’s claims and cases. The analysis is performed by the specialist semi-annually and is reviewed by management. The methodology used by the specialist includes an estimate of future anticipated claims based on the Company’s trends of average historical claim filing rates, future anticipated dismissal rates and settlement rates.

Separation

Separation liabilities provide for the estimated costs of implementing workforce reductions, improvements in productivity and certain other cost reductions at the Company's major transportation units since 1991. These liabilities are expected to be paid out over the next 10 to 15 years from general corporate funds and may fluctuate depending on the timing of payments and associated taxes.

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued

Environmental

The Company is a party to various proceedings related to environmental issues, including administrative and judicial proceedings, involving private parties and regulatory agencies. The Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party at approximately 243 environmentally impaired sites, many of which were, or may be, subject to remedial action under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, or CERCLA, also known as the Superfund Law, or similar state statutes. Most of these proceedings arose from environmental conditions on properties used for ongoing or discontinued railroad operations. However, a number of these proceedings are based on allegations that the Company, or its predecessors, sent hazardous substances to facilities owned or operated by others for treatment or disposal. In addition, some of the Company’s land holdings were leased to others for commercial or industrial uses that may have resulted in releases of hazardous substances or other regulated materials onto the property and could give rise to proceedings against the Company.

In any such proceedings, the Company is subject to environmental clean-up and enforcement actions under the Superfund Law, as well as similar state laws that may impose joint and several liability for clean-up and enforcement costs on current and former owners and operators of a site without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct. These costs could be substantial.

In accordance with Statement of Position 96-1, Environmental Remediation Liabilities, the Company reviews its role with respect to each site identified at least once a quarter. Based on the review process, the Company has recorded amounts to cover anticipated contingent future environmental remediation costs with respect to each site to the extent such costs are estimable and probable. The recorded liabilities for estimated future environmental costs are undiscounted and include amounts representing the Company's estimate of unasserted claims, which the Company believes to be immaterial. The liability includes future costs for remediation and restoration of sites as well as any significant ongoing monitoring costs, but excludes any anticipated insurance recoveries. Payments related to these liabilities are expected to be made over the next several years.

CSX CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued

Currently, the Company does not possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of additional liabilities, if any, on some sites until completion of future environmental studies. In addition, conditions that are currently unknown could, at any given location, result in exposure, the amount and materiality of which cannot presently be reliably estimated. Based upon information currently available, however, the Company believes its environmental reserves are adequate to fund remedial actions to comply with present laws and regulations, and that the ultimate liability for these matters, if any, will not materially affect its overall results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Other

Other reserves include liabilities for various claims, such as longshoremen disability claims, freight claims, and claims for property, automobile and general liability. These liabilities are accrued at the estimable and probable amount in accordance with SFAS 5.

NOTE 5. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

CSXT has a commitment under a long-term maintenance program that currently covers 46% of CSXT’s fleet of locomotives. The agreement is based upon the maintenance cycle for each locomotive. Under CSXT’s current obligations, the agreement expires no earlier than 2028 and may last until 2031 depending upon when certain locomotives are placed in service. The costs expected to be incurred throughout the duration of the agreement fluctuate as locomotives are placed into, or removed from, service or as required maintenance schedules are revised. CSXT may terminate the agreement at its option after 2012, although such action would trigger certain liquidated damages provisions.

The following table summarizes CSXT’s payments under the long-term maintenance program:

NOTE 5. Commitments and Contingencies, continued

Insurance

The Company maintains numerous insurance programs, most notably for third-party casualty liability and for Company property damage and business interruption, with substantial limits. A specific amount of risk is retained by the Company on each of the casualty and property programs. Specifically, the Company has a $25 million deductible for each of the casualty and non-catastrophic property programs and a $50 million deductible for the catastrophic property program. These deductibles only apply to the first event. If a catastrophic property or liability event occurs in excess of the Company’s deductible and the Company does not elect to purchase additional insurance coverage, then the deductible for the second covered event will equal the amount of the claim in the first event. For information on insurance issues resulting from the effects of Hurricane Katrina on the Company’s operations and assets, see Note 7, Hurricane Katrina.

Guarantees

CSX and certain of its subsidiaries are contingently liable, individually and jointly with others, as guarantors of approximately $72 million in obligations principally relating to leased equipment, vessels and joint facilities used by the Company in its current and former business operations. Utilizing the Company’s guarantee for these obligations allows the obligor to take advantage of lower interest rates and to obtain other favorable terms. Guarantees are contingent commitments issued by the Company that could require CSX or one of its affiliates to make payment to or to perform certain actions for the beneficiary of the guarantee based on another entity’s failure to perform.

As of first quarter 2008, the Company’s guarantees primarily related to the following:

Guarantee of approximately $61 million of obligations of a former subsidiary, CSX Energy, in connection with a sale-leaseback transaction. CSX is, in turn, indemnified by several subsequent owners of the subsidiary against payments made with respect to this guarantee. Management does not expect that the Company will be required to make any payments under this guarantee for which CSX will not be reimbursed. CSX’s obligation under this guarantee will be completed in 2012.

Guarantee of approximately $11 million of lease commitments assumed by A.P. Moller-Maersk (“Maersk”) for which CSX is contingently liable. CSX believes Maersk will fulfill its contractual commitments with respect to such lease commitments, and CSX will have no further liabilities for those obligations. CSX’s obligation under this guarantee will be completed in 2011.

As of first quarter 2008, the Company has not recognized any liabilities in its financial statements in connection with any guarantee arrangements. The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees is the amount of the guarantees themselves.

NOTE 5. Commitments and Contingencies, continued

Fuel Surcharge Antitrust Litigation

Since May 2007, at least 30 putative class action suits have been filed in various federal district courts against CSXT and the four other U.S.-based Class I railroads. The lawsuits contain substantially similar allegations to the effect that the defendants’ fuel surcharge practices relating to contract and unregulated traffic resulted from an illegal conspiracy in violation of antitrust laws. The suits seek unquantified treble damages (three times the amount of actual damages) allegedly sustained by purported class members, attorneys’ fees and other relief. All but three of the lawsuits purport to be filed on behalf of a class of shippers that allegedly purchased rail freight transportation services from the defendants through the use of contracts or through other means exempt from rate regulation during defined periods commencing as early as June 2003 and that were assessed fuel surcharges. Three of the lawsuits purport to be on behalf of indirect purchasers of rail services. One additional lawsuit has been filed by an individual shipper.

In July 2007, CSXT received a grand jury subpoena from the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General seeking information related to the same fuel surcharges that are the subject of the civil actions. It is possible that additional federal or state agencies could initiate investigations into similar matters.

CSXT believes that its fuel surcharge practices are lawful. Accordingly, CSXT intends to vigorously defend itself against the purported class actions, which it believes are without merit. CSXT cannot predict the outcome of the private lawsuits, which are in their preliminary stages, or of any government investigations, charges or additional litigation that may be filed in the future. Penalties for violating antitrust laws can be severe, involving both potential criminal and civil liability. CSXT is unable to assess at this time the possible financial impact of this litigation. CSXT has not accrued any liability for an adverse outcome in the litigation. If a material adverse outcome were to occur and be sustained, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Other Legal Proceedings

In addition to the matter described above, the Company is involved in litigation incidental to its business and is a party to a number of legal actions and claims, various governmental proceedings and private civil lawsuits, including, but not limited to, those related to environmental matters, FELA claims by employees, other personal injury claims and disputes and complaints involving certain transportation rates and charges. Some of the legal proceedings include claims for compensatory as well as punitive damages and others are, or are purported to be, class actions. While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering, among other things the meritorious legal defenses available and liabilities that have been recorded along with applicable insurance, it is currently the opinion of CSX management that none of these items will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. An unexpected adverse resolution of one or more of these items, however, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity in a particular period or fiscal year.

Each series of notes is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under Long-term Debt and may be redeemed by CSX at any time. The net proceeds from the sale of the notes will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include repurchases of CSX common stock, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, improvements in productivity and other cost reductions at the Company's major transportation units.

Revolving Credit Facilities

CSX has a $1.25 billion unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in 2012. As of March 2008, this facility was not drawn on, and CSX was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the facility. CSX also has a $15 million secured revolving credit facility expiring in 2011 and an $18.5 million 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in August 2008.

NOTE 7. Hurricane Katrina

In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina caused extensive damage to Company assets on the Gulf Coast, including damage to track infrastructure and bridges. Operations were returned to pre-hurricane conditions by the end of first quarter 2006. In 2005, the Company had insurance coverage of $535 million, after a $25 million deductible (per occurrence), for fixed asset replacement, incremental expenses, and lost profits. Management’s current loss estimate is approximately $450 million.

The Company’s insurance policies do not prioritize coverage based on types of losses. As claims were submitted to the insurance companies, they were reviewed and preliminary payments were received until all losses were incurred and documented. A final payment will be received once the Company and its insurers agree on the total value of the claim. Through the first quarter 2008, the Company had collected insurance payments of $370 million.

Gains on insurance from claims related to Hurricane Katrina were as follows:

	First Quarters
(Dollars in Millions)	2008	2007
Gain on Insurance Recoveries	$ 2	$ 18

The gains were attributable to recovering amounts in excess of the net book value of damaged fixed assets and to recording recoveries related to lost profits. Additional cash proceeds are expected and will result in future gain recognition.

Cash proceeds from the insurers are not specific to the types of losses and so, for cash flow presentation, the Company allocated the proceeds ratably among the three types of losses mentioned above. Allocated cash proceeds for lost profits and incremental expenses were classified as operating activities since they related directly to revenue and expenses from operations and were $1 million and $9 million for first quarters 2008 and 2007, respectively. Allocated cash proceeds for fixed asset damage were classified as investing activities since these proceeds had a direct relationship to money the Company spent on property additions to repair the hurricane-damaged assets that were recorded in the same category. Cash proceeds for fixed asset damage were $1 million and $10 for first quarters 2008 and 2007, respectively. In 2007, the $18 million gain on insurance recoveries is $1 million less than the $19 million of total cash received due to incremental costs incurred during the period. Those costs were added to the insurance claim and are expected to be recovered as part of the claim process.

Additional information about the effects of Hurricane Katrina is included in CSX’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 8. Income Taxes

As of March 2008 and December 2007, the Company has approximately $59 million and $58 million of total unrecognized tax benefits before federal tax benefits. Of this total, $50 million of both the beginning and ending balances net of federal benefits on state issues could favorably affect the effective tax rate. The Company estimates that approximately $20 million of the net unrecognized tax benefits as of March 2008 for various state and federal income tax matters will be resolved with the settlement of audits over the next 12 months. The final outcome of these uncertain tax positions, however, is not yet determinable.

CSX’s continuing practice is to recognize net interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had $4 million accrued for interest and penalties at both March 2008 and December 2007.

NOTE 9. Other Income (Expense) – Net

Other Income (Expense) – Net consists of the following:

		First Quarters
(Dollars in Millions)		2008	2007
Interest Income(a)		$ 8	$ 13
Income (Expense) from Real Estate and Resort Operations(b)		14	(16)
Miscellaneous(c)		33	(5)
	Total Other Income (Expense) - Net	$ 55	$ (8)

(a)	Interest income includes amounts earned from CSX’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.

(b)

Income from real estate and resort operations includes the results of operations of the Company’s real estate sales, leasing, acquisition and management and development activities as well as the results of operations from CSX Hotels, Inc., a resort doing business as The Greenbrier, located in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. Results of these operations may fluctuate as a function of timing of real estate sales and resort seasonality.

(c)

Miscellaneous income is comprised of equity earnings, minority interest, investment gains and losses and other non-operating activities. Additionally in first quarter 2008, CSX recorded a non-cash adjustment to correct equity earnings from a non-consolidated subsidiary. This correction resulted in additional income of $30 million. The impact is expected to be immaterial in future reporting periods.

NOTE 10. Business Segments

The Company’s consolidated operating income results are comprised of two business segments: Rail and Intermodal. The Rail segment provides rail freight transportation over a network of approximately 21,000 route miles in 23 states, the District of Columbia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec. The Intermodal segment provides integrated rail and truck transportation services and operates a network of dedicated intermodal facilities across North America. These segments are strategic business units that offer different services and are managed separately. Performance is evaluated and resources are allocated based on several factors, of which the principal financial measures are business segment operating income and operating ratio. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies, in the CSX 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain segment information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. See Note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, for further details. Business segment information for first quarters 2008 and 2007 is as follows:

(Dollars in Millions)	Rail(a)	Intermodal	Total Operating

First Quarter 2008
Revenues from External Customers	$ 2,365	$ 348	$ 2,713

NOTE 11. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans principally for salaried, management personnel. The plans provide eligible employees with retirement benefits based predominantly upon years of service and compensation rates near retirement. For employees hired after December 31, 2002, benefits are determined based on a cash balance formula, which provides benefits by utilizing interest and pay credits based upon age, service and compensation.

In addition to these plans, CSX sponsors a post-retirement medical plan and a life insurance plan that provide benefits to full-time, salaried, management employees hired on or before December 31, 2002 upon their retirement if certain eligibility requirements are met. The post-retirement medical plan is contributory (partially funded by retirees), with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The life insurance plan is non-contributory.

The following table describes the components of expense/(income) related to net periodic benefit cost:

		Pension Benefits

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

The Company provides customers access to a modern transportation network that connects ports, production facilities and distribution centers to markets in the Northeast, Midwest and the rapidly growing southern states. The Company transports a diversified portfolio of products, from domestically abundant coal to new energy sources such as ethanol, from automobiles produced by traditional American manufacturers to “new domestic” factories owned by European, Japanese and Korean automotive companies, and from life-essential chemicals to life-enriching consumer electronics. Additionally, the Company serves every major market in the eastern United States and has direct access to all Atlantic and Gulf Coast ports, as well as the Mississippi River, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence Seaway. Furthermore, the Company has access to Pacific ports through alliances with western railroads. Overall, the CSXT transportation network encompasses approximately 21,000 route miles of track in 23 states, the District of Columbia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

As the nation consumes increasingly higher quantities of imported goods, those products must be transported across the country in a way that minimizes the impact on the environment, takes traffic off an already congested highway system and minimizes fuel consumption and transportation costs. The Company’s transportation network, located in some of the largest and fastest-growing population centers in the nation, is well-positioned to capitalize on consumption growth trends. In this regard, more than two-thirds of Americans live within the Company’s service territory, accounting for about three-quarters of the nation’s consumption.

The Company has made substantial strides in improving operating performance in order to capitalize on these consumption growth trends. In 2004, CSXT implemented the ONE Plan, which continues to focus on optimizing the train network and utilizing rail assets more efficiently. Anchored by the ONE Plan and a variety of other initiatives implemented after the ONE Plan was introduced, the Company has achieved significant operational improvements that have enhanced safety, service reliability and productivity.

In addition to the ONE Plan, the Company continues to implement its Total Service Integration initiative (“TSI”), which aims to better align the Company’s capabilities with customer demands. TSI aims to optimize train size and increase asset utilization while delivering more reliable service to customers.

These initiatives delivered strong results for shareholders while higher levels of customer service have led to improved pricing. These efforts combined with operational efficiencies have resulted in substantial improvements in CSX’s operating income and operating ratio.

In addition to driving better financial results to create value for shareholders, CSX also employs a balanced approach in deploying its capital for the benefit of shareholders. This approach includes investments in the future, share repurchases and dividends. Through this balanced use of financial resources, CSX will strive to capitalize on an economic environment that is increasingly favoring rail transportation.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FIRST QUARTER 2008 HIGHLIGHTS

Revenue grew $291 million or 12% to over $2.7 billion.

Expenses increased $150 million or 8% to $2.087 billion driven by rising fuel costs.

Operating income was a 1st quarter record at $626 million an increase of $141 million or 29%.

Service and safety measurements improved in all categories.

CSX achieved record first quarter revenue, operating income and earnings per share from continuing operations. Revenue and revenue-per-unit increased 12% and 14%, respectively, driven by the value CSX provides to its customers through better service as well as higher fuel recovery due to higher fuel prices. The Company was able to achieve pricing gains predominantly due to CSXT service improvements and the overall cost advantages that the Company’s rail-based solutions provide to customers versus other modes of transportation.

These strong results in revenue were achieved despite volume declines in the Company’s merchandise and automotive lines of business. The overall 2% volume decrease was primarily driven by continued weakness in housing construction and associated markets, as well as lower automotive production.

Expenses were higher primarily due to the effects of rising fuel prices. Lower first quarter 2008 volume and better productivity from improved operations offset the effects of inflation for certain expense categories.

For additional information, refer to Rail and Intermodal Results of Operations discussed on pages 33 through 35.

In addition to the Company’s strong financial results, leadership and continued execution of established safety programs, which emphasize training, rules compliance and employee engagement, helped the Company deliver continued improvement in safety performance. The positive momentum continued as personal injury frequency improved 19% to 1.10 for the quarter. Train accident frequency improved 1% on a year-over-year basis to 3.04.

All key operating measures also improved during the first quarter of 2008, reflecting improved service reliability and efficiency gains. Train performance showed marked improvement, with on-time originations and arrivals improving 7% and 8%. System dwell, the average number of hours a rail car spends in a terminal, declined to 22.7 hours reflecting gains in terminal performance. Both average train velocity and recrews improved, indicating a positive trend in overall network fluidity. Train velocity increased 3% to 20.8 miles per hour, while average recrews improved 7% to 66 per day.
