Confirming what others have said, every one of my Brooks [Team] Pros has silver rails, including the great-looking maroon Team Pro I bought last year. Though not everyone's cup of tea (so to speak), Brooks saddles find favor with many of us, particularly those with the patience to break one in properly. (It's probably a (human) age thing, but I do not call my 1973 Brooks Pro taking this long to break in. )
