Need SR baggage car data | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

In another topic we discussed the types of cars that make up the American Freedom Train, specifically their length. Most cars are NYC 9100 series baggage cars that I found listed as 73' 6". One car is a Southern Railway 500 series baggage car. I can not find the specs for this car. Can someone please provide the length? Thank you.

Most appear to be ex Pullman heavyweight sleepers with most of them being former 12-1's. The two used on the AFT were St. Louis Car, most places list them as 70'.
