We are flying into Milan and visiting Lake Como. From Como we want to take train to Lucerne staying 1 night. Train to Lausanne 2 nights. To Berne 1 night and on to Basel to leave on the Cruise. We were planning on buying the Swiss Travel pass & taking the Gotthard,Galacier Express and the Golden Pass. We were planning to buy the pass on your site and make reservations where necessary. Does this sound like a reasonable plan? Where do we find the train schedule? Thanks for your help.

Have you actually taken out a Swiss rail map to connect the dots of your locations? I do not see how the Glacier Express will be of any use as it does not connect any of your dots.
As I see it, here is your plan.
Train from Como to Lugano, then the Gotthard Panorama Express from Lugano to Luzern, stay 1 night.
Golden Pass route to Lausanne, via Interlaken and Montreux, stay 2 nights in Lausanne.
Train to Bern, stay 1 night.
Train to Basel.

You can use the SBB Mobile app to see schedules. This is the Swiss train system app. It looks like you’re trying to hit the popular scenic routes. The Swiss Travel Pass does cover these, but it does not include the required reservations for the panoramic cars.
