"The momentum gained by a occupied cart going downslope is only enough to travel upslope by roughly 2/3 the initial height."

uhm? and on what basis ? and it's entirely not what I meant.. You actually do travel further up by using sloped down tracks

watch these 2 examples  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtY-tXBzXso&t=4m5s first is 3 sloped down, in total it drops down 5 and goes up about 12 blocks second is 3 sloped down, and 3 sloped down while going up so in total it drops 3 first and then climbs to block 16 your 2/3rd makes no sense... I don't mind if you improve my text but this didn't do that

edit.. Oh - i apologize in advance, I did a full compare between my entry and your entry, not individual comparisons, If the other guy edited that in I apologize ;)  Lalophobia 20:57, 12 May 2011 (UTC)


 * On this basis, Minecart, which was written months and months ago before Powered Rails were even introduced. Your tests are flawed because the downward movement of carts by itself already adds momentum. Furthermore, the momentum gained by the cart is dependent on the speed of the cart traveling over it. The slower the cart, the more momentum it gains. (You can prove diminishing returns by chaining multiple PRails.) -Xinhuan 21:06, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
