I have a book as you describle, green with PC GE unit 6556 on the 
cover leading another 6500 class engine with a freight following. The 
title is Penn Central System Bi-Annual, by Robert H. Reid, published 
by PC Railroader. The book has one color photo next to the title page 
and the rest of the book is black and white, mostly roster shots. It 
has fully detailed roster information for each class of motive 
power. The interduction page states it took 7 months of work to 
produce this first PC Bi-Annual. Does this sound like the book you 
are refuring too?
