Minecarts don't bounce off redstone blocks when on powered rail
The Bug
The minecart rides down a powered rail and stops at the redstone block instead bouncing off and getting sent in the other direction. Also applies to minecarts that are standing still on the powered rail.
How to reproduce
- Place a line of three rails
- Place a powered rail on both ends
- Place a redstone block behind one end (right side in screenshot)
- On the other end (left side in screenshot), place a redstone block on the side and a different solid block on the end
- Now place a minecart on the left powered rail
→
Notice the minecart starts to ride to the other side
→
also notice that it stops against the redstone block - Remove the cart and place another on the right powered rail
→ Notice the minecart stands still

The redstone block 1 should have partial opacity, meaning that mobs can spawn on it, but ladders can't be placed on it, for example. However there are some discrepancies between the redstone block in MCPE and that in PC/java, where the redstone block is still behaving like a fully opaque block.
The incorrect behaviours in Pocket Edition are:
- Ladders can be placed on the sides 2
- Minecarts bounce off redstone blocks 3
- Chests placed underneath cannot be opened
(Keep updated with any further info)

Confirmed.
Redstone is a transparent block. Minecarts only bounce off of solid blocks.
I would say that because the redstone block is in the shape of a solid block, it should behave like a solid block. It doesn't really make sense how it is IMHO.

Affects 21w40a
affects 1.17 and happens with glass too
This bug affects 1.18.1 as well.
When a Minecart is moving on a Powered Rail, one of the final checks it does is to see if it will bounce off of a wall. The function it uses for this check will let the Minecart bounce off if the block in question is considered a "solid block." For most blocks, there are two requirements to be a solid block:
However, a block can be explicitly set not to be considered solid even if it otherwise meets the above requirements. Blocks set this way include:
Glass and Beacons already fail the first check of blocking light. I assume that the rest were made non-solid for use in redstone contraptions. There are also a couple of odd blocks out:
Possible fix: Modify the Minecart bounce-off check to work with full cube blocks. Replacing the check outright might make Soul Sand no longer work as it is hardcoded as solid and is not a full cube.
This isn't a bug, minecarts only bounce off solid blocks, and redstone blocks are transparent.
Mojang has triaged this, so yes, it IS a bug.
Can confirm in 1.18.2 and 22w19a.
Can confirm in 1.19.2:
