Miraculously, the driver was able to get themselves out of the vehicle and suffered only minor injuries.
All trains have been suspended between Springwood and Penrith, with buses being organised to replace them, but major delays to travel this morning are expected.
NSW Fire and Rescue Superintendent Adam Dewberry said the operation to remove the car from the rail line was a "complex" one, particularly taking into account the powerful electric current strung above the tracks.
