Was watching a TV show and saw this clip at the beginning of it. They then announced the town, in michigan...paused it, checked out some aerial photos and sure enough, it matched up. Name that Michigan town:

Rail looks to good for downtown Petoskey. I'm thinking Traverse City too but can't envision the exact location so it might be someplace on MQT.
