Fast Minecart
by Bestsoft100
Fast Minecart doubles the speed of minecarts, so rides across a world or along a rail line take half the time.
What it does
Minecarts travel twice as fast on the rails once the mod is installed. The change is server-side only, so players join a server running it without installing anything, and a client install alone has no effect on servers. The mod is published for Fabric across 39 release versions, 1.14 – 26.1.1, and the code is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license.
Key features
Doubled minecart speed
Minecarts move at twice their normal rate along rails, shortening long transport routes.
Server-side behavior
The speed change applies on the server, so connected players need no local copy of the mod.
Public source code
The source code is published, so server owners and developers can read how the speed change is made.

How it compares
Minecart Speed Changer is also server-side only and runs on Fabric, but it is published for 26.2 alone and its license is All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Kinetic Minecart runs on client and server with Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
