We have two options:
1) Zug -> Venice via Milan (nice fare... CHF 52)
2) Zug -> Innsbruck (stay night for quick visit); next day Innsbruck -> Venice.
I've heard that scenery over Alps is bit nicer through Innsbruck than via Milan. Would you concur? Or am I splitting hairs and they're both just wonderful? Is that route (for the beauty) worth three additional hours of train travel?

I would say Gottard route via Milan is more spectacular.
Does this 52 Fr fare require booking a particular EC train from Zug? If not, I would suggest taking a slower IR train up to Bellinzona or Lugano. There you can open windows, take good pictures, and the experience is much more complete.

Thank you!
I typed in one of the cities you mentioned--can you please review my screen shot?

Yes, seems like this fare is linked to that very train...

I mean how do you book the slower train? How does one specify that?

Do you have any railpass for Switzerland? InteRail Switzerland or Swiss Pass ([ux]https://rail.shop/acprail/switzerland[/ux]) or anything else?
