I have a TS55 REQ and 2 FS 1400/2 tracks. I am thinking about switching to an 18 volt track saw. My question is which 18volt saws will work on my tracks or is that not even an issue. Thanks in advance for your input.
 
Any Festool saw should ride on it, whether you go with a proper TSC (technically a 2x18V) or an HKC (only 18V). Beyond that, your rails will be good for the Makita track saw (2x18V), Makita 9 1/4" saw (2x18V), Mafell Track saw (they have a second groove that will work on the Festool tracks, but their carpentry saws do not), Dewalt (same thing with the second groove), and likely some lesser known cheaper variants. Festool luckily kind of set the standard for tracks, so most will fit it.
 
I didn't watch the entire video, but it seems to answer the question.  It is really the wrong format for this though.  A chart that shows equipment names at the top and track manufacturer at the left would have been far more useful.
