There seems to be no settings for materials for rails. Is there a way to apply material to rails?

You need to do it through the families in the project browser. Expand families, find your railing family, dbl click to open its type properties. Material will be there.

Depends on which one :)
Top Rail and Handrails are set through the family like mentioned above.
Regular railings gets the material through the railing dialog, just after selecting the profile.

Thanks for the replies. It all makes sense. However, I dont see this. Not sure what I'm missing. Could it be that Revit 16 is a bit different?
