Introduction
Brief overview of railway systems and data management.

Background of Linked Lists


Description of linked lists and types (singly, doubly, circular).

Problem Statement and System Requirements


Define the objectives of the railway management system.

System Design and Data Structure Setup


Node Structure: Define each station node in the linked list with
attributes such as station name, next pointer.

Code Snippet:
```c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

struct Station {
char name[50];
struct Station* next;
};
struct Station* createStation(char* stationName) {
struct Station* newStation = (struct
Station*)malloc(sizeof(struct Station));
strcpy(newStation->name, stationName);
newStation->next = NULL;
return newStation;
}
```

Implementing Railway Route Management


Describe how to create and traverse routes.

Code Snippet:
```c
// Function to add a station to the route
void addStation(struct Station** head, char* stationName) {
struct Station* newStation = createStation(stationName);
if (*head == NULL) {
*head = newStation;
} else {
struct Station* temp = *head;
while (temp->next != NULL) {
temp = temp->next;
}
temp->next = newStation;
}
}
// Function to display the route
void displayRoute(struct Station* head) {
struct Station* temp = head;
while (temp != NULL) {
printf("%s -> ", temp->name);
temp = temp->next;
}
printf("End\n");
}
```

Adding and Removing Stations


How linked lists allow adding/removing stations dynamically.

Code Snippet:
```c
// Function to remove a station from the route
void removeStation(struct Station** head, char* stationName) {
if (*head == NULL) return;

struct Station* temp = *head;


if (strcmp(temp->name, stationName) == 0) {
*head = temp->next;
free(temp);
return;
}

while (temp->next != NULL && strcmp(temp->next->name,


stationName) != 0) {
temp = temp->next;
}

if (temp->next != NULL) {
struct Station* toDelete = temp->next;
temp->next = temp->next->next;
free(toDelete);
}
}
```

Scheduling and Real-Time Updates


Explain how train schedules can be managed with linked lists.

Simulation Example
Complete example to simulate adding/removing stations and
displaying routes.

Code Snippet:
```c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main() {
struct Station* route = NULL;

addStation(&route, "Station A");


addStation(&route, "Station B");
addStation(&route, "Station C");

printf("Initial Route:\n");
displayRoute(route);
removeStation(&route, "Station B");

printf("Route after removing Station B:\n");


displayRoute(route);

return 0;
}
```

Advantages and Limitations


Benefits and drawbacks of using linked lists in railway
systems.

Conclusion and Future Scope


Summary and future enhancements (e.g., using a doubly linked
list).
