High Speed Rail

File:High Speed Track.PNG

High Speed Rail allows Minecarts to travel 2.5 times faster than normal, while moving in a straight line. Additionally, attempting to leave these rails or make a turn without first slowing down will likely result in death and destruction.

Collisions are bad too as even a single dropped item on the track is enough to cause an explosion.

The speed of the High-Speed Tracks is even greater than that of flying with Swiftwolf's Rending Gale or running with Quantum Leggings boost.

You can use High Speed Transition Rail to slow the speed by going over them in direction opposite to arrows on them when they are powered by redstone. About eight of these should slow the cart down to a normal speed, so you should then be able to execute a turn without the track coming apart.
