Gator had an ad frontside boardsliding a rail.

If we are going throw in pure vert pros like Bucky Lasek, we may as well list every '70s pro (side trivia question: Are there any 1970s era pros, besides Eric Dressen, that has landed a trick on a handrail?)

him or Sal i believe. Heath was one of the first to do it fs.
Sal did one backside in an H Street vid but I wouldn’t be surprised if Beagle did the first frontside.

Don't think I've ever seen Ronnie Creager on a rail. Watched his "What If" part last night, still holds today. Jake Brown also

Steve Alba skated in the Hester Series in 70s so fits the criteria.

Not sure if this is relevant but young Lucas puig was skating handrails and broke his arm on a cliche tour then said he would never hit rails again,

Can’t Recall if he actually did or not,

I think Mike Mo broke his arm pretty good skating a rail when he was young too, and Biebel sacked one as a kid and said it made him stop skating rails ( https://www.mensjournal.com/adventure/sabb/  the head injury story is pretty gnarly too)

I saw Creager do a really long front 5050 on a rail when he came through my home town in the 90s. Jesse Paez did it years later and the photo was run in an Aus mag. I have a photo of Creager grinding the rail from a disposable camera.

The rail he did the boardslide on, he feebles in the Monkey video
WHL: backlip like a 10-12 stair. Kickflip stairs, then lipslide rail line near the end of his part
Not sure why he didn't skate more rails, in a clip of him at Tampa AM he was heelflipping into all kinds of stuff

Someone said Ron Whaley, he tailslides and switch noseslides a pretty big rail in his Uprising part.

Creager, switch board in 411vm commercial

Stevie Williams, kickflip noseslide city hall 6, switch crook handicap rail in DC vid.

Spencer Fujimoto
Mike Graham
James Kelch
Andy Roy
Bill Weiss

I've seen footage twice of Andy Roy doing some kind of boneless trick onto a rail, I think one was when he was young and the other was in a KOTR video

i didn't watch that 411 up there, but AFAIR Creager switch front lipped and maybe switch front tailslid the smaller UCI rail??? .......Beagle, Heath and Ronnie skated those quite a bit way back then. seen a sponsor me vid of Ronnie front lipping a 9 or 10 stair, was for Powell flow or a local shop, way before foundation. got to see Heaths sponsor me vid also, most of it ended up in Ravers? those guys definitely skated rails.
