Status:Closed Resolved:
Product:iPhone/iPod touch Product Version:6.1

Summary:
When searching for Lithgow (or seeking directions to Lithgow), iOS 6 Maps.app puts its location approximately 50 km away from its actual location.

Steps to Reproduce:
In iOS Maps.app, perform a search for "Lithgow, NSW, Australia"

Expected Results:
Pin should be centred on Lithgow.

Actual Results:
Pin is centred on a remote location (with no road access) some 48km away.

For comparison, enter directions for From: "Lithgow, NSW, Australia" to "Main Street, Lithgow, NSW, Australia" which will show the 48km path between these two place marks.

Regression:
Of course this worked fine in iOS 5
