Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to detect the obstacle on the curved railway track and to take preventive step to save the lives. The major problem in the obstacle detection is at the curved portion of the track. So this paper provides the detection process in every case accurately. Our focus is on systems where the sensors are fixed on the railway sleepers of curved portion, were it can detect the obstacle i.e., living and non living objects and communicate with the loco pilot through IOT technology to stop the train automatically. For backup protection actuators are used either it can be pneumatic or hydraulic blowers. The solution to prevent these accidents is to create early warning detection device for locomotive driver before the collision or accident occurred so that locomotive drivers can avoid them.
