1 - do you know someone with a table saw?
2 - track saws are a lot of money. If you are using it 'one time' try looking at a normal circular saw (with the proper blade) and a metal straight edge cutting guide with a variable clamp mechanism you can clamp to the work piece.

If you are set on a track saw then Festool or DeWalt but you are looking at $600+.
Bought one of those adjustable metal cutting guides like above at Harbor Freight for peanuts. With the correct blade it works like a charm whether I use a circular or jig saw.

That would be a good option if they made those 8' long. But i'd still have to do it outside. I don't want all that dust all over the train building.
