WRONG, as usual. :~(
Which bit of the example of my usage of the terminology
I gave (and you conveniently snipped from your reply)
are you struggling with?

Other than the fact that you are totally wrong you mean, the only
place in the UK one tends to find a "Frog" is in a pound, never as an
operational part on railway tracks...

I'm not interested in whether or not it's prototypically correct
language, only what is in common usage among the intended audience.
