 ABSTRACT

This Railway ticket reservation system should be able to manage all the
reservation-related functions. The online reservation System is derived from
GDS (Global system) also known as CRS Computer Reservation System). The
online reservation system has its database centrally located which is awessed
through an application programming interface (API) with the invention of the
online reservation System. The traveler and the railway got the freedom to
book a seat. anywhere at any time at their Convenience.

INTRODUCTION
This Project Introduces Railway Reservation System. It Explains now
Reservation is being done in Indian Railways. Since the advent of train journeys in
1853 when the first passenger train was started, Indian Railways has always been
reinventing and innovating itself. From the days of steam engines to electric express
trains, it has come a long way. While the make and comfort that the Indian Railways
offer has obviously improved with the boost in technology, the truly revolutionary
concept of the Indian Railways has been the introduction of the software-based
railway reservation system.

Railway Reservation System is developed to automate the railway reservation

system. It includes modules required to successfully operate the railway reversion
process smoothly. It has train master to all modify train information, Train schedule
to enter train journey details include all the station name, arrival time and departure
time. It includes automatic fare calculation as per the distance between two stations.

Reservation module consists of automatic seat no and coaches no allocation

system, Daily schedule for updating of not confirm seat and coach no. All master like
train master, train schedule, reservation fees, cancellation fees charges can be
modified individually from front end and changes reflect in all modules.

Therefore proposed "Railway Reservation System" has been designed to

automate the process of railway for ticket reservation and back-office activities.
System can make the daily activities efficient and providing the fast response.

The Railway Reservation System facilitates the passengers to enquire about

the trains available on the basis of source and destination, Booking and Cancellation
of tickets, enquire about the status of the booked ticket, etc. The aim of case study is
to design and develop a database maintaining the records of different trains, train
status, and passengers.

This project contains Introduction to the Railways reservation system. It is the

computerized system of reserving the seats of train seats in advanced. It is mainly
used for long route. On-line reservation has made the process for the reservation of
seats very much easier than ever before.

In our country India, there are number of counters for the reservation of the
seats and one can easily make reservations and get tickets. Then this project contains
entity relationship model diagram based on railway reservation system and
introduction to relation model There is also design of the database of the railway
reservation system based on relation model.

OBJECTIVE
The main objective of the railway ticket reservation System. Ticket is to
manage the details of train, booking, payment, seat, ticket. It manages all the info
about Train, Customers, Ticket. The purpose of the project is to build an application
program to reduce the manual work for the managing fort train booking, Customer
payment. It tracks all the details and provide to the Customer.

The objective of the railway ticket reservation system basis to design software
to fully automate the process of issuing a railway ticket. That is: -

1. TRAIN DETAILS
2. UPDATE TRAIN DETAILS
3. RESERVING A TICKET
4. CANCELLING A TICKET
5. DISPLAY THE PRESENT TICKET STATUS

PROJECT MODULE
The Train Ticket Booking Management Project Consists of three primary modules:

1. User Module- The user module is designed for passengers to book tickets
online. It enables user to create an account, search for trains, check
availability, book tickets, and make payments. User can also view their booking
history, cancel tickets, and print e-tickets

2. Admin module- The admin Module is used by the railway authorities to

manage the ticket booking system. It allows them to view and manage
bookings, add and update train schedules, manage user accounts, and
generate reports on ticket sales, revenue, and occupancy rates.

3. Payment Gateway Module- The payment gateway module is an

essential part of the project that allows passengers to make secure online
payments for their train tickets. It is integrated with various payment
gateways, such as debit cards, credit cards, and net banking, providing users
with a range of payment options.

CONCLUSION
The railway ticket reservation is a complex activity because of sheer
volumes and type of coaches etc. also transaction has a good variety. So, the
CRIS and 3 tires sever client architecture. It has proved to a boom not only
passengers but also for railways functioning since, it generates all the
reports necessary for optimization and decision-making. It is a real time
passenger reservation system.
