Railways is one of the most extensively used modes of transportation in the world. The global passenger traffic is more likely to grow steadily in the upcoming years. The comfort and service provided to the passengers, on-board a railway train must be increased due to the growth in railway traffic. The proposed idea is a system for providing services to the passenger on requests in railway trains using Internet of Things (IoT). The requests from the passengers are allocated to the crew members based on priority scheduling. The database is used to keep track of every worker and maintains the record of workload details of the crew members in the profile of each crew member, which thus ensures better service to every passenger. Thus the proposed system using centralized method will have better performance over the conventional approach.
