 Description   

I found that my minecarts ran away and throught they went into a wall or something at 2-3 points. The Track is about 100 Tracks or more in Size, and the the minecrats glitched out merging to compress then Decompress to go Extreamly fast.
They were 40-60 Blocks off the Track and went through like their was a Track.
I got so upset i lost 14 Diamonds and a Diamond Pick.
I was going to Creative to get it all back cause i also lost a chest full of Cobble which i needed to complete a building.
I had used X-Ray mod after the events have pasted on a Server.
When i found them they went right through a 1x2 Room.
Like it was Butter or their was a longer track.
Yeah i creative to get them all up again but i had a hard time with keeping them up due to Compression and Tight corners.

Where they came from? Up from Surface to bedrock.

How i found them? X-Ray mod, Only way without knowing what happened to them.

No answer on querry, assuming no longer an issue.

No this is not a Duplicate as this is when minecarts are Compressed. When that happens they look for the Shortest way onto the track to run and they take of REALLY FAST! Replicating this is easy.
1: Place Several Minecarts at a Dead end of a Track uphill.
2: Walk about 5 Minecarts up the Hill and slowly push them up.
3: If you walk through 1 you know it did a runner or it walked. (Walk is like a few meters and Run is 1 you can not catch unless in Creative mode and are at a REALLY HIGH SPEED)

I Read part of the one you said Duplicate and it said they walk.
Do they only walk a short distance or they dont stop?
The bug here is one that stops.
PS: These Basically walked on a fake Track that didn't Exist and stopped at the end.

Duplicate of MC-14?

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
