1153 GMT - CSX CEO Steve Angel is still in his early days at the company, but he seems determined to make the railroad company the best-in-class in multiple areas, Benchmark analyst Nathan Martin says. Angel, who started in September, faced a number of questions about his initial thoughts on the company's operations after he discussed third-quarter earnings on Thursday night. The analyst says the CEO made it clear that he wants to improve the performance of the franchise as a standalone company while keeping his eyes open for strategic opportunities. Angel sees potential to work with other railroads to take friction out of the system, Martin says. (katherine.hamilton@wsj.com)
