Abstract: In nearby period, train collision at platform is occurring due to human error like wrong signalling but the cost of such error is lives of many people. We can avoid such accidents by adding automation in train tracking to control them via a central controller along with many sub-controllers. Trains are identified by unique RFID codes to each one. All the trains will be scanned to check the identity before they can reach the station and according to vacancy of the platform, train will be diverted to that particular platform. If any platform is not available then train will be ordered to hold till any platform gets vacated. Communication between train scanning system and central processing unit will be established by ZigBee modules. Such automation will be helpful to better security with high degree of accuracy.
