Train cancellation

I was travelling on the EC310 from Venice to Zurich, however the entire train was told to deboard in Padua and board another to Milan, which I am currently on. They could not give any more information about connecting to Zurich. The only direct train from Milan to Zurich was the EC310 we got off, and the others we might reach in time have multiple connections with short transfers. Does anyone know if they will provide a continuation of our previous train (Venice to zurich EC310 ) once we reach Milan? Or does it mean that train is no longer valid and we will need to try take another with multiple connections. Also will our current tickets be valid if we have to take one of those other trips? Thank you

The line between Venice and Brescia is closed now. They found a bomb of WW2 near the rail way line. Some trains got a deviation via Bologna or got cancelled. In Milan go to the train staff and ask for help to get on the next train to Zürich. From Milan more trains also possible with changes.

If you can get to Milan it will be straightforward.

The last train from Milan to Lugano is at 20:43.

Do not worry about tight connections : they are guaranteed, staff will hold the train for people coming from Milan.

You'll be able to get some compensation afterwards.
