The world is dependent on transportation and without transportation goods may not reach to the destination or people cannot travel from one place to another. So Transportation plays a major role in every aspect. There are different modes of transportation and the cheapest and most efficient mode of transportation is Railways. Railway trains not only used for carrying persons from one place to another but at the same time it carries the required goods to be delivered to a particular location, so it serves as multi-purpose vehicle. If this Railway trains which is used for multipurpose activities suddenly faces major issues like accidents, will be a huge impact on all sectors. In India, Train accidents posses a major challenge and it not only results in loss of lives but also indirectly makes a huge impact in economy. Train accidents not only occur due to a crack in Railway track But there are some other reasons like if we see in forest areas elephants usually crosses tracks to reach other side of forest but this leads to loss of lives of elephants and it affects our biodiversity which results in elephants life in endangered category To avoid that or to prevent accidents Occurring, this project proposes an idea of implementing an early warning system or an alert system by using software and hardware technologies like Arduino UNO integrated with IoT and GPS technology to intimate both the loco pilot and the track men about the incident by providing them the required satellite coordinates, and if suppose an objects like animals is on track it provides a buzzer sound which automatically makes the animal to move so that accidents can be prevented by moving the objects and if a crack is detected intimates the loco pilot and the track men simultaneously.
