CSX delivered 3% more shipments in the third quarter to help drive its profit 8% higher. But only modest volume growth is expected in the rest of the year as the Southeast rebuilds after two major hurricanes. The railroad said it earned $894 million, or 46 cents per share.

The railroad expects the hurricanes to be a $50 million drag on its fourth-quarter results through a combination of rebuilding costs and lost revenue. During the quarter that ended Sept. 30, the railroad said its revenue crept up 1% to $3.62 billion. Analysts were expecting CSX to report revenue of $3.68 billion.

The railroad has been working for years to reduce its expenses by running fewer, longer trains, so it can operate with fewer locomotives and train crews. That work to streamline the railroad’s operations continued this quarter with expenses declining 2% to $2.27 billion.
