You are correct except that 482 should be added to the list. 485,486 and 487 had also been left in Salida after the Valley Line was abandoned in 1951. However, by 1955, 485 had already been scrapped after its fall into the Salida turntable pit and 486 and 487 had been loaded on standard gauge flats and taken to Alamosa for use between Alamosa-Durango-Farmington in the pipe rush.
