The thread title says it all.
One can no longer book (at least according to Amtrak.com) a SB connection at Philadelphia from #42, which runs Monday-Saturday. Amtrak.com does show a SB connection from #44 -- the Sunday-only Pennsylvanian.
As an exercise, attempt to book a trip from either Greensburg, PA or Latrobe, PA to Washington, DC on Amtrak.com. You'll get the "Sorry, this itinerary is not available" screen, and Amtrak.com will kick out a alternative schedule for #44, on Sunday. Too bad if one wants to travel west of Harrisburg to Washington, DC Monday-Saturday.
What makes this especially odd is that Amtrak.com will let you book a NB connection off of #42, and onto a Regional. I have not yet tried to book the SB routing through an agent.
