Length of Wheels of Time horse car roof needed

While I already have a WoT horse car roof, I had cut it down previously.  However, for an upcoming project, I will match the length of the roof as manufactured.  To that end, could someone mic out the overall length?  I don't need any other measurements as I can take those off the one I have.  Preferred to the nearest thousandth.

I just went out to my train building. My 6 inch caliper is too short to correctly measure the roof. 😐

No one else responded so I'll give it a shot. I measured my SP Number 7230 at; 81 ft 9 N scale inches, with two rules, a third was 82 ft 3 inches, 142 mm, and full scale at 6 and 11/64th inches, or 6.017. Hope that helps,

Six and 11/64ths equals 6.172.
