The light weight electric trolley designed here is intended to detect the track breaks in the running rail. It is a type of track maintenance vehicle that runs on normal railway track generally used by the track maintenance staff. The trolley designed here is automated such that when the system is energized it starts moving over the track and detects broken rail, if it detects any track break, automatically it will be stopped just before the broken rail and information will be transmitted to the concern authority through IOT. To prove the concept practically, one small motorized electric trolley will be constructed for live demonstration. Since it is supposed to be run over a metal track, it must be simulated over a wooden plank and to create fault, at one end of the track, broken rail must be created. When the start button is activated, the trolley starts moving in forward direction, when the trolley reaches near to the broken rail it will be stopped there automatically and alarm will be energized.
