Bosch's professional plunge saw sold with the 1.4 m (5 ft) rail and a case — which is the honest way to price a track saw.
The end of it The complete system in one box, from a network that supports it — with a listing description we would want confirmed first.
Every figure is a manufacturer specification, read off the listing itself, and the judgments are ours — drawn from how the specification behaves in this class of machine and from what long-term owners consistently report. Where a figure is missing, we say so rather than fill it in.
1,400 W, 165 mm (6.50 in) blade, supplied with the FSN 1400 guide rail and a case, under part number 0615990M9D.
The title of this listing names a reciprocating saw among the contents. That is not what this set is, and it is very probably a listing error rather than a packing one — but a set is exactly the kind of purchase where a wrong item description turns into a wrong box. Ask the seller to confirm before ordering.
We considered leaving this product out for that reason. We have kept it and told you instead, because the set is otherwise the most complete way into a professional rail system on this page.
A track saw is bought once and lived with for a decade, because the rail system is what you are committing to. Rails are not reliably interchangeable between brands: the rib the saw rides on differs in width and profile, and a saw running on a rail it was not cut for gives you a chipped edge on the good face.
Two consequences. First, compare systems, not saws — the cost of the extra rails, connectors and clamps you will buy over ten years dwarfs the difference between two machines. Second, the splinter strip on a new rail is a consumable that must be trimmed by the saw that will use it, before the first real cut.
No such listing: the American Amazon shop answers the reference with a search box rather than a page.

We do not know. The listing title reads "GKT 55 GCE + FSN 1400 Säbelsäge 165 mm (6.50 in) + Koffer", and Säbelsäge means reciprocating saw, which is not what this product is. It looks like a listing error rather than a product one, but we are flagging it because it is the sort of thing that turns into a wrong delivery. Confirm the contents with the seller.
Usually, and it also makes comparison honest. A track saw without a rail is not a working tool, and a listing that quotes the bare saw is quoting half a purchase. Compare set against set.
A listing is not an offer: the reference exists on these stores, availability changes daily.
