Usage
If there is no block beneath the activator 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. It allows entities and the player to walk through it, very much like a crafting table. However, minecart float slightly above the rail.
Redstone Power
If powered by redstone current, it will light up. When it is on it will show qualities different to that of a regular minecart rail.
Minecart
When powered with a redstone signal, the activator rail will eject the player from a minecart.
TNT Minecart
A TNT minecart placed on a powered activator rail will explode.
