1. Create a 100 block long rail line.
2. Load a mob into a cart (I did it with a villager but it works with others).
3. Send them down the track.
4. Follow and break the cart.
5. Entity vanishes.
6. Save and reload the world and the entity will re-appear.

When a player is in a boat, often they become invisible also once the boat is broken, the player usually is invisible for around 1-2 mins

That is probably the case. However the entity no longer vanishes on transit as it once did. That seems to have been fixed. However they instead vanish when the cart is broken instead.
They're not vanishing for me, but when I break the minecart, they get teleported inside a block, then jump around very glitchy. After a while they walk normal again though.
This happens for me in multiplayer, I have a relatively slow connection and whenever I transport villagers in minecarts they disappear as soon as they get out of the minecart, I think its partly a lag related issue because about 10 percent of the time they will later appear back somewhere along the track, I'm about ready to tear my hair out over this, because of this my player created village is now dead due to all the transported villagers vanishing into oblivion.
