In Victoria on the NE ABB (who sound like they've been bought by
EDI, thus PTR) have the maintenance contract for both the FA &
ARTC bits.

As for the pole line, I'm not sure.  Certainly the VRTC still does
some sort of Comms work in house, but I don't know whether that
extends to maintaining the pole line.  I think you will find the
Pole Line hasn't got much comms running on it anyway.
