More than three decades after the body of teenager Mark Haines was found on train tracks in rural NSW, a new inquest could finally give his grieving family the answers they've been longing for.
The Gomeroi teenager was found dead eight kilometres south of Tamworth in the state's northwest on January 16, 1988, with a stolen car found crashed nearby.
Police concluded the 17-year-old laid on the tracks either deliberately or in a dazed state, something his family never believed.
