How to make powered rails in minecraft

One of the most common means of transport in the world of Minecraft is the minecarts. They are entities that you can get inside of and ride. However, you cannot even place minecart down without rails. These non-solid blocks are easily craftable but also generate naturally in your world.

There are several rail variants in-game, with most of them having redstone-related functions. However, in this guide, we will focus on the simplest rail of them all and show you how you can make and use it in Minecraft.

Resources You Need to Make Rails

The crafting recipe for rails in Minecraft requires the following items:

• 6 Iron Ingots
• 1 Stick
• Crafting Table

However, this recipe yields 16 rails as a result, which is more than relieving.

Moreover, as is the case with most recipes, you’ll also need a crafting table.
