The "Top of Europe" usually refers to the Jungfraujoch trip. I don't know exactly how the train lines work or run, but you would need to get to Interlaken, then to Lauterbrunnen, past Wengen and up to Kleine Scheidegg. From there you go up to the Jungfraujoch.

"the top of europe" is Jungfraujoch. You need to get timetable. Do it on the following Swiss Railway site.

Put Davos Platz for dep. and Jungfraujoch as arr.
I hope you don't mean to do it as a day trip because it seems to take 7 to 8 hours oneway.

Not only is it a long trip time wise, but you change trains a minimum of 5 times!! Your shortest connect time is 6 hours, 50 minutes. Therefore, I think it is not feasible as a day trip.
It is one of those situations where you can't get there from here; you have to go to some other place first.

Davos is pretty isolated---it is hard to get there from anywhere.
You can see the train routes and schedules yourself at www.rail.ch
Maybe include a stop there before or after Davos?
