If there are two adjacent rails on non-opposite sides, or three or more adjacent rails, a powered rail lines up in the east-west direction. When placed, a powered rail configures itself to line up with any adjacent rails (including activator rails, detector rails, and other powered rails), as well as adjacent rails one block up. For example, if a fence is on the ground, attempting to attach a powered rail to the side of the fence causes the powered rail to be attached to the top of the ground next to the fence instead. the top of a hopper, upside-down slab, or upside-down stairs.Ī powered rail cannot be attached to the side or bottom of any block, but attempting to make such an attachment may cause the powered rail to attach to the top of a block under the destination space.the top of any full solid opaque block (stone, dirt, blocks of gold, etc.), including full-block mechanism components ( command blocks, dispensers, droppers, note blocks, and redstone lamps).
To place a powered rail, use a powered rail item while pointing at a surface facing the space the powered rail should occupy. A powered rail can be used as a rail and as a redstone component.
