Austrac are an accredited private freight operator based at Junee, with a
number of locos, including a couple of ex WA .  Unfortunately they do not
have an operating website.  You can read about their operations in
enthusiast and industry magazines, and they are often referred to in this
newsgroup.  If you'd like to read previous postings, go to the aus.rail
