How tight is tight

I've been fitting some Peco fishplates to Streamline track,

and I've noticed that having fitted to one section,

as I push the second section of track in, the fishplate

slides along the first section a small amount.

Is the normal?

I've been slightly squeezing the bottom of the fishplate

onto the track with pliers; is this the right thing to do?

I've had that before too and giving them a squeeze with pliers has not caused an issue (yet!) - at least you know your rails are nice and smooth. As long as they hold the joining rails close together (which pinning/gluing the track will of course achieve too) and you have plenty of droppers to supply the track with power then I can't forsee any issue, however my knowledge of such things is nowhere near that of many others here so am happy to be educated!
