Hello everyone!
I am going to purchase a mth railking alco pa unit and I would like to use it to pull passenger trains (cause that's what it was made for). It will only be a 3 car consist because of size constraints on my spurs. I am settled on an mth railking streamlined combo/ sleeper 2 car pack, but I am struggling to find a single car (observation?) to trail behind it. Preferably I would like a rounded end.
Thanks!

It sounds like you are going to use 1 Alco PA to pull your train. Being you are only pulling 3 cars, I would use 3 coaches and model a commuter train. They were short and didn't have observations on them. Being the PA is a long loco, I would use a minimum of 18" for each coach.
Actually, I was going to use the aa unit which is why I think I will only have room for 3 cars
I guess you could use the A-A with 3 coaches with the idea that at the end of the line, the units could do a run around and couple up to the 3 coaches on the other end, without turning the loco, for the trip back.
