Abstract
Today the cheapest mode of transportation is railway but now no. of accident of railway are increasing due to careless railway crossing. Careless in operations and lack of knowledge of workers are main reason of this, therefore we are trying solution of this problem. This paper gives new smart railway track mainly for physically disabled and aged persons. This railway track is automatically works in railway platform. Normally two platforms are connected by mobile platforms through which passenger can walk. A disabled person is given an RFID tag, on scanning the tag on the RFID reader, a moving floor like path is layered connecting the two rail steels of the track. We placed radio frequency communication modules for achieving the process of finding train on the track. With the help of RF module we are trying automatic control of railway gates. When automatically opened and train go through track and when train leaving the area the mobile platform will automatically get closed. To sense the presence of train we are using RF module. By sensing the train on one path we are giving pulses to the motor to open or close the mobile platform. Here we have used the Atmel microcontroller ATmega8.
