here's what you see when you click on the little "places" icon on a geotagged photo in Apple's iPhoto. The locations can be off by 10 or 20 yards sometimes, but this one seems accurate almost to the foot. You can zoom in or out, and see the location in satellite or hybrid view instead of this street view. Satellite shows forest density, bodies of water, etc.; the hybrid view overlays that with the roads seen in this image, and is my favorite view. That's a thumbnail of the photo in question, btw.
If you click on the "here's the photo itself" link beneath the photo, you'll see a larger version of the picture itself. The little chain king was under one of the railroad ties at lower left in the photo.
cool, huh?!
