It will look too long. I have the Metrolink and the MTH cars and the locomotive looks a bit long when coupled to the 18" cars. Got lucky and got some K-Line 21" cars at a good price. The Rail King Surfliners/Superliners are only about 16" long and would look short as the locomotive itself is close to 15" long. Solution: add extra cars.
Yeah, I looked in to the K Line ones just to see what their MSRP when they are out and they are expensive! I don't think I would have any luck finding them at a good price at a train show.

The K-Line 21-inch passenger cars are hard to come by and fetch very high prices at shows and on eBay. The K-Line Surfliners are accurate (dual side commuter doors); the MTH cars are actually Superliners painted in Surfliner colors. The K-Line Metrolink cars look great.
