I think the BA TriStars had something called a Ground Roll Monitor (GRM) which could be set to zero and would then indicate the number of metres the aircraft had rolled. The Aerad taxi charts had headings and distances in metres for various taxiways which would have enabled the intrepid crew to find their way from the runway to the stand.

Maybe now with geo-referenced chart displays in the cockpit we could do even better?
