With regards to Mazey Day, there is a Statesman Rail trip to Penzance on Mazey Day (25th June) that takes exactly the same route from Birmingham and Worcester that Pathfinder's trip usually takes. So that would be 2 charter trains on an identical route on exactly the same day. I'm not sure what capacity is like on that part of the network these days, but potentially there may be an issue there as well.
Both trains would be dining and first class heavy too albeit with the PF one probably having a couple of carriages more on it (which would be standard class) and something more enthusiast orientated. I don't have any info whether there is planned to be although PF do use several core pickup routes, a few of which could serve Penzance so not necessarily a show stopper if Statesman go unless paths an issue.
