NG details linger in Alamosa yard

We just finished a counter-clockwise tour of Colorado three weeks ago, and drove Antonito-Alamosa on our way back to Denver. Stopping in La Jara and Alamosa, I could still find evidence of the third rail, fifty years later!
Siding at La Jara station.
Switch in Alamosa yard
Am I right that short rail lengths are where frogs were removed?
