Demand for connected things is emerging very fast from a report of IBM connected device will yield insights driving potential economic value of 11 trillion USD. However there many complex System like Railway which is working on old mechanical and electrical system which is expensive to maintain as well as they are not perfect. This paper Discuss how can railway switch its system to more affordable and fast, by using technological advancements in IoT and Analytics problems like ineffective periodic check of locomotive wagons and coaches will be avoided, it will be helpful for broad benefit to the rail industry like reducing congestion, improving mobility, reducing the environmental impact of transportation providing economic benefits for riders and operator, crowd management and asset management. This system will work on diverse types of sensor which will gather large amount of data like motor temperature, door health wheel health all this data will be transferred to Shed were they know which locomotive to call or not. There are 11,122 Locomotive in Indian railway every locomotive undergoes periodic check thus this system will make things go faster. It also Discuss how mqtt which is client server architecture attached with eclipse paho and eclipse make this system are convinent as mqtt which is very light weight, small code print, it’s real time, work in low network.
