If you place a wager on whether a train will derail... is that considered off-track betting?

3807 and 1505 teamed up to head west to ACKERVILLE this morn. Train of 4 boxes, 3 centerbeams loaded with siding, 7 2-bay salt c-hoppers, 2 soo coal hoppers, a dozen gondolas, and 2 tank cars.
Returning train (dispatch was told @ 17:20) was 98 cars! Presume some long strings of Soo/Milw coke hoppers.

Think I arrived just short of 11:00. 6 C Hops can south across Villard - all spotted south of Cameron. Took about 15-20 minutes to get the train pulled out and Fred chatting with Mary.
