There's probably a better way for the LEGO track, but I do know that there is a
small saw-thingy that you can get at model railroad/hobby stores for cutting
model railroad track. They're really sharp and have really small fine teeth. I
can't imagine them being that expensive. I don't know how it would handle the
plastic LEGO tie part of the track, though.
