The main aim of this project is to simplify pedestrian crossing over railway track with a movable platform extension instead of a staircase. The prime reason for accidents in Indian railway station arrangement is that the “trains crossing on adjacent tracks in opposite direction”. In order to overcome this scenario our platform design uses single track between platforms so that passengers can board the train from both sides. Once train departed the platforms will be connected through the movable platform extensions so that the passengers can walks over them and cross the platforms.When a train is about to arrive at the station the buzzer alarms rings so that the passengers will walk away from the moving platform extension and once cleared platform will open for the train. In case if clearing the platform got delayed then the train will be stopped by sending necessary control signal from the railway platform control unit. The train status is monitored through the IR sensors to identify the extract position within station premises. The train’s status will be displayed on LCD displays over the platform for the passenger convenience. The platform control unit consists of Atmega16 microcontroller unit. In order to communicate with the train RF communication modules are used with transmitter at platform control unit and receiver being on the train control unit.
