In 1976 Conrail inherited their entire fleet of SD35's from the Central Railroad of New Jersey and Penn Central, which in turn inherited its units from the Pennsylvania Railroad. Unfortunately, the units did not last long on Conrail and fell victim to the railroad's sweeping consolidation of its locomotive fleet. Most of the units were retired and removed from the railroad in 1985; although, a few might have soldiered on into the beginning of 1986. The thought is that they were traded into EMD for new SD50's.
