Can't say I've seen either, unfortunately, but you should be able to estimate dimensions from photos.

I would also get a lot of photos, as there were some subtle differences among the fleet (ERIE 444 and 600, for example, had a roof
that gently tapered down at each end)

I've attached a shot of former Erie 300 at Ringoes in 1974, in sad shape but showing some underframe details through the front of
the car. Apparently, the underframe is still extant and someone is interested in rebuilding it from the ground up....
