Railways give the most cost effective and most convenient mode of traveler transport each for long distance and residential district traffic. Also, most of the transport in India is being dole out by railway network. Still, accidents are the most important concern in terms of railway track crossing and unidentified crack in rail tracks in Indian railway. Most of the train accidents occur in railway tracks because of faults in tracks leading loss of precious life and loss of economy. So there is need of new technology that is strong, economical and stable for track detection in railway track. This paper aims to propose a defected rail track detection system. This project discusses a railway track crack detection using image processing and is a dynamic approach which combines the use of Wheel encoder module to send alert messages of information of location and GSM. A Raspberry Pi 4 is also used to control and coordinate the activities of these devices. This project prevents train derailment by detecting a crack in railway track using image processing technology
