Not anymore!
With Floating Rails you have the ability to place the rails directly on top of the water. I made it so the rails are supported by a lily-pads to keep the rails floating.
I made is so all types of vanilla rails can float on top of the water. (Not in the 1.12.2 build yet)
But water was just not enough
So I added in magma-lilies that spawns around on top of lava lakes in the overworld and nether. 
Lava-Lilies + Rails = 
The Crafting
The crafting is a bit special. You can add up to 8 rails around the lily-pad and cash out as many rails as you need for the price of 1 lily-pad.
Same goes for the lava any other type of rails like powered etc.
WIP - Work in progress 
This is going to be a redstone torch peaceable on top of the water to help you activate the rails that
requires a redstone signal to function. Coming soon.
