Railways serve people with numerous benefits like helping in reaching places very quickly, providing low priced fare travelling, etc. On the basis of such various advantages the railways provide, it is one of the most largely used mode of public transportation. During the recent times in Indian railways, frequent number of accidents have taken place due to fault like presence of cracks on rail tracks. This is making railways a dangerous option for travelling. The monitoring system used at present in Indian railways is proving to be inappropriate. To overcome the shortcomings of the currently used rail monitoring system for detection of cracks an efficient monitoring system has been proposed and explained in this paper. Along with it, the implementation result of the proposed system has been shown and described in the paper.
