A Canadian bwithy better familiarity can supply location and other details
The three shots of street running are downtown. 7 Ave SW between 4 St SE and 11 St SW is a dedicated transitway, only trains and buses are allowed. To save space they make stops on alternating blocks, and it is quite interesting to watch a train pull up right up behind a bus at a red light and then overtake it after the light changes and the bus pulls up and over into its stop.
The third photo with the pedestrian overpass is at the Anderson station, looking south. At the time this was the southern terminus of the system, and the extra track is a yard lead for the Anderson maintenance garage, which is visible in the background.
The fourth photo with the crossing is looking north toward the Whitehorn station, the original terminus of the northeast line.
