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

I wanted to check out the greater Wyeville metroplex east of Tomah, so whilst heading over I caught some MPPR chatter on the radio while they did some switching and got a track warrant from Wyeville to Necedah. They were delayed a couple minutes while a track crew cleared up, but then headed east.

MPPR? You mean MSSPR?

No, I mean MPPR...they (conductor or Dsp43) only said it on the radio about 20 times over the course of an hour.
