    In the Xbox One version, you can now move the minecart on your own, so the furnace cart is now not required, and neither are powered rails. All you have to do is hold the left stick in the direction you want to go, a lot easier without all the gold. Hope that helps :)

    This achievement isn't very difficult. You'll need to travel 500 meters, or blocks, going in one single direction. Since you no longer need a furnace cart, this achievement is simpler than it was on the 360.
    To get the rails needed for this, follow these instructions;

    Go down to floor 16. Bring a map with you to keep track of which floor you're on.

    Start mining a tunnel, one wide and two tall. Keep going until you reach a cave.

    Search around the cave for resources, but keep a special eye out for Iron.

    Rinse and repeat. Remember to always mark where your tunnel is when you find a cave.

    You'll need roughly 7 1/2 stacks of rails, which equals to 180 iron ingots. By the time you get all that, you should be close to getting Chestful of Cobble as well.

    Now if you're a lazy person, I happen to have a rail set up already. If you want to get this achievement, add and message me on the Xbox.

    To start off you will need 500 rails which can be obtained from abandoned mine-shafts or can be crafted with 6 pieces of iron and a stick which yields 16 rails each time.

    Next your two minecarts, one for you, and the other for a furnace. This is how you will get you power to move you down the track. This way you dont have to get a whole bunch of gold and redstone.

    Then simply build a 500 block track and ride it all the way to the end. You will most likely have to supply more coal to the furnace cart along the way and also the achievement description says you have to only travel in one direction so i recommend building the track in a straight line.
