One way is to add a capacitor and some extra field windings.
Starters are needed because the starting current in an motor may go as high as 6-7 times its rated current.
Some of the methods used for starting motors are,
Direct online starters, Auto Transformers, Soft Starters, Variable Speed Drives, Intelligent Motor Controls.

Which motor is used in electric train and traction?
An electric train uses electric motors. Modern trains have many motors, they are mounted on the axles, one motor per axle. Some axles will be powered and have motors on them, some will not.
How many types of AC generator are there?

What is an ac motor?
An AC motor is an electric motor that runs on alternating current, like household electricity, as opposed to a DC motor that runs on direct current from a battery. Most AC motors work from the mains supply, which has a frequency of 50Hz in the UK and 60Hz in the USA. Other types are available that work like stepper motors and need a specialist supply to run them.

What kinds of motors can work as generators?
Some types of dc (direct current) motor can be used to generate dc, in which case they are often called 'dynamos'. Some alternating current (ac) motors can be used to generate ac, in which case they are called 'alternators', but many types will only work as motors. For instance, a squirrel cage ac motor cannot be used as an alternator.

Explain in detail the constructional details of three phase induction motor?
The stator of an induction motor consists of poles carrying supply current to induce a magnetic field that penetrates the rotor. To optimize the distribution of the magnetic field, the windings are distributed in slots around the stator, with the magnetic field having the same number of north and south poles. Induction motors are most commonly run on single-phase or three-phase power, but two-phase motors exist; in theory, induction motors can have any number of phases. Many single-phase motors having two windings can be viewed as two-phase motors, since a capacitor is used to generate a second power phase 90 degrees from the single-phase supply and feeds it to the second motor winding. Single-phase power is more widely available in residential buildings, but cannot produce a rotating field in the motor, so they must incorporate some kind of starting mechanism to produce a rotating field. There are three types of rotor: squirrel cage rotors made up of skewed (to reduce noise) bars of copper or aluminum that span the length of the rotor, slip ring rotors with windings connected to slip rings replacing the bars of the squirrel cage, and solid core rotors made from mild steel. For information on die-cast copper rotors in energy-efficient induction motors, see: Copper die-cast rotors.
