In today’s infrastructure, railway transportation systems are essential because safety is key to preventing mishaps and system failures. This work aims to outline the design and implementation of an Arduino-based system intended to detect cracks in railroad tracks and prevent collisions. A number of sensors are included in the proposed system, including piezoelectric or vibration sensors to detect cracks and ultrasonic sensors to prevent collisions. When possible, threats are detected, an Arduino microcontroller uses real-time data from multiple sensors to initiate emergency procedures and sound warnings. Vital data is sent to a centralized monitoring station via an advanced wireless connection module for quick analysis and action. Particularly designed to be financially feasible, energy-efficient, and easily expandable, the system is ideal for extensive deployment across railway networks. In order to improve the overall safety and dependability of railway operations, experimental and computational results validate the system’s accuracy in detecting fractures and preventing collisions. The initiative represents a significant step forward toward train transportation systems that are more intelligent, secure, and efficient.
