The driver has to run the train according to the signal present in the signal post placed at many points, these signal posts arranged side by the tracks are main guide lines for the engine driver. This system has been in use for many decades; however, as the technology has been upgraded in almost all fields, a sophisticated signalling system must be enforced for the benefit driver. In this regard this project work has been taken up which is aimed to enhance the technology by displaying the signal condition in front of driver. In other words, the signal present in the signal post laid by the track must be displayed in advance in front of the engine driver. This was the main purpose of the project. In general, signals for trains are located side by the railway track, and signals arranged over a signal post can be viewed from a long distance. Based on these signals, the engine driver controls the train.To avoid such accidents, it is essential to automatically display the signal condition over the dashboard of the engine, that is, in front of the driver. This additional feature provides further safety, in this regard in addition to the normal signals laid side by the track, in advance, I.e. if we can able to display the status of signal over the dash board of rail engine, it will be quite useful for the driver to control the train in advance. As the track side signal post contains three indicators, three different codes are generated from embedded system and this code is transmitted through IR sensor.
