Railway transportation is one of the most used means of transportation in India and many other countries, as large number of people use rail for transportation everyday, safety of the passengers is one of the important goals to be met. The railway department is still in its growing phase so; there are few issues to be focused on. Some of them are, is to reduce the number of accidents that occur due to derail and crack in the track. In this paper, we are building a IoT based model to detect crack using Arduino and IR sensor, once the crack is found, the location of the crack will be fetched with the help of GPS using GSM module, a message will be sent to the railway authorities’ registered mobile number about the crack being found, along with the location of the crack in the form of a Google maps link. This model will be fixed on to railway track maintenance vehicle which run independent of train. This model is built to be simple as it operates outdoors.
