The railway system is one of the most widely used modes of transportation due to its low cost. To keep the railway system running smoothly, continuous track monitoring is needed. These days, the railway system is manually supervised. As a result, there is a greater risk of disasters, such as fatalities, occurring as a result of human error while monitoring. The main problem with manual system monitoring is that it takes a long time to process all of the necessary data. Since railway tracks are built over thousands of miles, it is virtually impossible to manually control the device over such a longdistance. At railway crossings, a lot of accidents happen. Crossing gates are usually opened and closed after receiving direct input from the station. If there is a delay in obtaining information from the station, there is a risk of swearing incidents. The main goal of this research is to simplify and protect the railway system. The proposed system employs Force Sensitive Resistor (FSR) detectors for automatic side road crossing protection. Any type of breakage, as well as vibration, can be efficiently detected with a higher degree of precision using Light Dependent Resistor (LRR) and laser detectors. In the event of an unexpected situation, such as an accident, the GSM module will begin communicating via message with the nearest control room for assistance. Sonar sensors are often used for obstacle avoidance when something unexpectedly appears in front of the train. The Internet of Things (IoT) has been added to the system to allow it to be monitored from anywhere in the sphere. The Arduino UNO is a microcontroller that serves as the system's backbone. The framework has the potential to be extremely beneficial to our country's railway economic growth.
