Night train from Amsterdam to Zurich
Travel on the overnight sleeper from Amsterdam and arrive in Zurich the following morning.
The Nightjet overnight sleeper service, run by the Austria operator OBB, connects Amsterdam to Zurich picking up passengers along the way in Cologne, Bonn, and Koblenz, and dropping off the following morning in Freiburg, Basel, and Zurich.
Amsterdam to Zurich tickets provided by Rail Europe, which also allows you to buy tickets for multiple train operators in multiple European countries - handy if you're travelling throughout and beyond Switzerland by train. It does charge a small booking fee, but offers several useful facilities, such as a free email alert service to let you know as soon as bookings open for your chosen route so you can snap up the cheapest tickets when they become available.
