Rails are essential items that allow you to build transportation systems and get the most out of your in-game adventures. From basic rails for minecarts to more advanced variants such as activator rail, detector, and powered rails, rails add an exciting dimension to gameplay. The rails offer a wide range of possibilities to create fast and efficient transport systems. By combining different types of rails and you can use redstone circuits, design complex routes, interconnect areas, and enjoy smooth and comfortable transportation throughout your world in Mine Blocks.

Rail Types

Minecart Rail

• The minecart rail is the main component for building transport tracks in Mine Blocks.

Activator Rail

• The activator rail when activated by a redstone signal, it provides an additional boost to the minecart that passes over it.

Detector Rail

• The rail detector is a type of rail that emits a redstone signal when a minecart passes over it.

Powered Rail

• The powered rail is a variant that provides power to minecarts while they are moving on it.
