Track pliers... which work best?

Hi, I'm getting set to build a 027 layout using used Lionel 027 track. Track is clean & no rust. However the ends have spread as expected & some pins are loose.
I don't want new track as I want an aged look.
I want to get some track pliers that work perfectly with 027. There are lots of pairs on Ebay, but which really works best for 027? I don't care about O at this time, just 027.
Lionel service manual says ST384 track pliers are for both 027 & O. How can that be since rail head diameter is so much larger on O?
Has anybody bought & used any of the track pliers shown on Ebay & can for sure say "get these for 027, they work perfect"?
Thanks.
Very best, Don Johnson
