Usage
If there is no block beneath a detector rail, it will break and drop as an item. If there is any type of rail one block towards either side and one block up, it will change its texture to appear connected to that rail. The detector rail allows entities and the player to walk through it, very much like a crafting table. However, minecarts float slightly above the rail.
Redstone power
If there is a minecart on the detector rail, the detector rail will give off redstone power, powering nearby blocks.
