Scenic Railway recommendation

We are traveling to Switzerland in July, arriving in Geneva and leaving through Basal in 3-4 days. We have been to Berner Oberland a few years ago, and would like to see other parts of the country. Strong preference to being within at least view of mountains/alps. There are several Scenic railways listed in RS book, but not sure which is most recommended. 2 adults, 2 teens - who will be considered adults due to being 16!

Also open to other recommendations as to places to stay/visit. Thank you!

Coming from Geneva, the Golden Pass route from Montreux to Zweisimmen to Interlaken to Luzern is quite scenic. Luzern is just 1 hour from Basel on a direct train.
