PANORAMIC EXPRESS- Switzerland- Is reservation compulsory for a family?
We are a family of 2 adults and 2 kids, travelling on Swissrail pass, on May 13th 2010. ( which is a public holiday in Switzerland)
We are planning to take the train from Montreux @ 9.45am to Spiez via Zweisimmen; which is the golden pass route. The SBB site says :
Groups reservations compulsary ( GR),
GROUPS supplimentary charge ( GZ),
and Reservation recommended( RE).
Is the family considered as a Group? Is it possible to board this route without reservations? I am not very clear...
Can Switzerland Experts help...?

We [DH and I] have travelled that route in the opposite direction, twice. The second time we wanted to sit right at the front [ie panoramic window, over the driver], and booked several months ahead. I would definitely book ahead.
