(erielack) Phoebe Snow Passenger Equipment Handrails

List members-

Since the EL list is having a slow period and Paul has scared 
everyone off using the list :>), I will ask another brain twisting 
stupid question.

I am in the midst of upgrading my "Phoebe Snow" cars.  After 
reviewing pictures in both the EL Color Guide & the Erie/DL&W 
Color guide, I'm confused.  It's the handrails and grabirons 
on the passenger cars. They are, depending on the picture you look 
at in those references, are MAROON, GRAY, Silver (or metal 
with a lack of paint) and in some cases they look gold (this 
maybe sunlight reflection).  Granted, I'm an old guy with some 
impaired vision, and my mind may not interperting things as to 
the true colors, but WHAT COLOR WERE THEY???

Any help on this subject is appreciated and if it comes down 
to a vote &/or poll, so be it.  My fleet of cars and paint brush
await your answers or opinions.
