 Abstract

During the pandemic it has been hard to maintain social distancing within trains so we can
create an online token system for them which helps reserve seats in the train especially on the
local trains. Which will create a random QR security code which can be verified on the train
with a scanner attached to the door that opens only when the ticket scanned is verified. to
maintain optimal amount of people and provide service for the people with the pass. This can
help ensure that the trains are not overcrowded.

This project will be in the form of both a web page and a mobile application capable of
running on different operating systems. The person can look at what the timings of the trains
and book a ticket on the app following which a QR code will be generated. Once the person
reaches the station they can scan the QR in the train which is attached at the doors to make
sure that everyone has a ticket and the train is not overcrowded.

INTRODUCTION

Over the past two years all of us have been trying to adjust to the new normal, whether it be
everything going online, staying indoors most of the time or not being able to meet the people
you would have meet regularly before the pandemic. During this tiring pandemic it's been
hard and frightening for people to visit places that doesn't encourage or practice social
distancing like the public transportation especially the railways which have been the primary
mode of transportation for many middle-class workers and students.

Till now the Governments primary method to solve this issue has been to halt all local
passenger railways which has been a huge inconvenience to many people also resulting in
easier to practice social distancing during railway travel by creating a token reservation
system for railway

NEED FOR PROJECT

Our project aims to tackle the problem of overcrowding on a train by implementing a system
which generates a QR code when a ticket is booked and generate which the person can scan
in the train. This helps in reducing the overcrowding in trains and could help maintain social
distancing at this time.

OBJECTIVES

 All of this is to ensure that there is may be a proper system where the railways can be
a bit more organized

 Limit the number of people without a ticket entering a compartment

 Maintain precautious measures to ensure that people are safe during the current
scenarios

 To modernize and digitalize the current system.

PROPOSED WORK

 The process begins when the person books a ticket online or at the train station.

 A QR Code will be sent to the registered mobile number or if collected at the station
the QR Code will be printed on the ticket

 When the person enters the train, they should scan the code into the scanner at the
door of the train.

 To make sure that there is order there could be a person at each compartment to
maintain order and help people out.
