4. INTRODUCTION Railway problems are detected and reduced.
Proposes roubustness solution to crack detection.
Sensor based crack detector.
Implementation for several applications.

5. EXISTING METHOD Manual detection . High cost
Track crack detection only possible.

6. PROPOSED METHOD Low power consumption. Less analysis time.
Obstacle & flood detection in single system.
Exact error location can be detected .
Indication through GPS & GSM.
