Colors to factor level in plot

Question

The client wants me to make a story like. This link uses an rgl package, but the quality of the exported data is too poor. So I started in the plan. I can control most of the things I want to do, but for some reason all the bars have different colors.

A MWE:

X<-1:60
Y<-sort(runif(60,-3,3))
Z<-runif(60,0,50)

p<-plot_ly(x = c(X[1],X[1]+1,X[1]+1,X[1]),
    y = c(0,0,Y[1],Y[1]), z=c(0,0,0,0),type = "mesh3d",color=I("red"))

for(i in X){p<-add_trace(p,x = c(i,i+1,i+1,i), 
          y = c(0,0,Y[i],Y[i]),  z=c(0,0,0,0),type = "mesh3d",color=I("red"))}
for(i in X){p<-add_trace(p,x = c(i,i+1,i+1,i), 
          y = c(0,0,0,0), z=c(0,0,Z[i],Z[i]),type = "mesh3d",i=c(0,0),
         j=c(1,2),k=c(2,3),color=I("black"))}

p

While I would expect something red and black, I get this multicolor result:

What I'm actually looking for is as follows: with color for each factor level, but at the moment, the result is identical to the above:

X<-1:60
Y<-sort(runif(60,-3,3)) 
Z<-runif(60,0,50)
ColFactor<-sample(c(0,1),60,replace = TRUE)

p<-plot_ly(x = c(X[1],X[1]+1,X[1]+1,X[1]), y = c(0,0,Y[1],Y[1]), z=c(0,0,0,0),
    type = "mesh3d",color=ColFactor,colors=c("red","blue"))

for(i in X){p<-add_trace(p,x = c(i,i+1,i+1,i), y = c(0,0,Y[i],Y[i]), z=c(0,0,0,0),
    type = "mesh3d",color=ColFactor,colors=c("red","blue"))}
for(i in X){p<-add_trace(p,x = c(i,i+1,i+1,i), y = c(0,0,0,0), z=c(0,0,Z[i],Z[i]),
    type = "mesh3d",i=c(0,0),j=c(1,2),k=c(2,3),color=I("black"))}

p
