This is fine - I've run consists of three powered locos with no problems. Best way to find out if the locos will run reasonably together is to put them on track, a little distance apart, and turn the power on. If they stay much the same distance apart they'll be fine together. I usually put the faster loco behind as the train weight means that the couplers will be kept under tension throughout the train, and there will be less strain than if the lead loco is the faster one.
