The GE Genesis series locomotives were only built as cab units (P32, P40 & P42).  Amtrak typically runs them elephant style when multiple units are used, but they also can be seen running back-to-back.  Depending on your layout grades and the length of your train, you can probably find a dummy unit to go with the powered one, but you may consider adding a powered unit and running them in "lash-up" mode using DCS.

@GG1 4877 - Your response has raised a question in my mind - Do you know if MTH originally offered 'unpowered' Genesis units?

MTH cataloged a few Premier non-powered Genesis locomotives:

20-2459-3 (#825) and 20-2722-3 (#838) Amtrak Phase III

20-2723-3 (#813) Amtrak Phase IV

20-2528-3 (#193) Amtrak Phase V (Uncataloged custom run for Walthers)

20-2460-3 (#906) and 20-2725-3 (#915) VIA Rail

20-2461-3 (#232) and 20-2800-3 (#231) New Haven
