Abstract: ABSTRACT AI ENABLED RAILWAY TRACK CRACK DETECTION SYSTEM The Indian Railways has one of the largest railway networks in the wor1d and it provides the most important mode of pub1ic transport in India which is most commonly used and cost-effective long-distance transport system of the country. The main problem about a railway analysis is detection of cracks on track. If these damages are not controlled at early stages, they might lead to a number of derailments resulting in a heavy loss of life and property. In this work we are introducing a project that aims in designing ROBUST RAILWAY CRACK DETECTION SCHEME (RRCDS) using Ultrasonic Sensor. This avoids the train accidents by detecting the cracks on railway tracks. The Robotic model is designed with a GSM and GPS Module. And also capable of alerting the authorities in the form of SMS messages along with location by using GPS and GSM modules. The system also includes distance measuring sensor which displays the track deviation distance between the two tracks. This will save several trains in India from unwanted damages from the rail track
