Railway Ticket Booking System using QR Code

Indroduction :-

Indian Railway is India’s third

largest human transport
system over which 2 core
passengers travel daily all over
India. The passengers accomplish
their journey from their
source station to destination in
standing mode. The number
of passengers in Indian Railway
has been increasing
drastically in every year, in a rate of
25 to 50 percent from
its previous year. Such increase also
increases the number of
waiting queue passengers in
station. Increasing number of
waiting queue passengers, increase
rushes in train which
results “happy journey” slogan of
Indian Railway in to
“unhappy journey”. In order to
ease the ticket booking
facility for passengers, as well as,
boost paperless ticketing,
railways is planning to introduces
QR code system. The
national transporter is also
working to strengthen its
Unreserved Ticketing System
(UTS) for QR railway app.

Abstract:
The Railway Ticket generation using android is
basically derived from computer reservation system
and upgrade to android based ticket generation using
QR Code. Railway Ticket generation System contains
the details about train schedules and its fare tariffs,
passenger reservations and ticket records. A Railway
inventory contains all train details with QR Code
Information. The online QR Based ticket generation
system has its database centrally located which is
accessed through an Application Programming
Interface (API).With the invent of Railway
management system the traveller and the train got
the freedom to get a ticket without standing in a
queue. For travelling in unreserved section, the
passengers have to stand in a queue to get the ticket.
In our system, the passenger can generate the
unreserved ticket through their android phone itself.
The passenger can get the train details by scanning the
QR code of a train to get the ticket. The passenger can
get a ticket by entering number of seats and
payment details. It has also become a hassle free
transaction for both the train and the traveler. The
Railway reservation system involves three main
actors the database, online operator and a database
scheduler. The database scheduler updates the
database, One of the core functions of the inventory
management of railway reservation system is the
inventory control. Inventory control steers how
many seats are available for the booking in
unreserved section.

Drawbacks
1. Only few bookings could be made due to
manual operation.
2. It takes enormous amount of time for recording
transactions

Advantages
1. The main objective of the new system is to
provide easy environment to purchase the ticket
for unreserved category without standing in the
long queue.
2. Accurate data processing.
3. The records are dynamically updated.
4. Reduce passenger and computer operator time and
money.

MODULES
After careful analysis the system has been identified
to have the following modules:
1. Administrator Module
2. Passenger Module
3. Train Details Module
4. Check train & QR Code Scanner
5. Book Ticket & Payment Module
 6. Reports

CONCLUSION:-
In this paper a mobile ticket application developed
for Android using Dot net, SQL , and PHP on
the server side which can change the way people
buy their tickets in future. This kind of ticketing
application can be applied to any kind of
transport system. The android application is one of
its kinds and finds huge application to buy sub-urban
railway tickets through android mobile Also this
application saves work in ticket counters . At
the station level security user can have
Hardware devices to validate the QR codes
before the user enters or leaves the station,
where the user can have access towards
platform after being validated by the hardware
device. Time trains will be available will also ease
the user to allot his time accordingly to reach the
station, so in this project users will be using QR
railway app here to find the location of the user
and nearby train station to display the train.
Hence problem of issuing local train tickets
has been solved with new application.
