Not only is demand lower for overnight trains without sleepers it would be useless to most of the state. I'd look at a train running closer to the pennsylvanians original schedule which ran opposite the current trainBut given the run time, having the entire run be at a "reasonable" hour isn't possible.

noa Pittsburgh departure can't really be made earlier. Add a second one in the evening, say at 6pm, and you've got yourself a post-1AM arrival in NYP.
Going the other way, I guess you could have the westbound leave earlier, but any departure from NYP post-2pm would get you into Pittsburgh after midnight.
