I have three towel rails connected in series in my bathroom. I just
treat them as one big radiator. Works fine.

I've done the same sort of thing: needed a 2m single, curver rad. for a
bay. It would have been expensive and several weeks to arrive. Use 3-off
600x500 in series and yes, there was drop across them but that's what rads.
are for! The drop was about the same as a 1600mm in the same room.
