Can’t argue with first one. Several other shots from same seller of that trip on the Coast Line.
Second shot, I’m going with Tunnel #1 near Lookout, a few miles west of Oakridge/Westfir. There is a construction era photo of that tunnel being built on page 279 of Austin & Dill’s Southern Pacific in Oregon book. There is another tunnel though in the McCredie Springs area that can’t be completely ruled out. But it looks like Tunnel 1.
Last photo is definitely along Lookout Point Reservoir. Power/utility line along the tracks in that stretch still use the same unique poles today.
