I wrote Stan Rydarowicz and sent him photos of gonodla ends, no word. I agree with your choice, but I also think we need Pullman ends, Pressed Steel and flipped Dreadnaughts.

A new reverse-dreadnaught end for the Red Caboose GS gondola would
be of great interest to this SP modeler! (Most of the sugar beet
gons had these ends.)
How about the War Emergency 41 ft gondolas (only available as resin
kits from F&C)?
Good point about the ends. I've managed to fit a Detail
Associates Improved Dreadnaught end onto the F&C War Emergency gon to
model T&NO's Class G-50-21 cars, but additional end styles could be
very useful.
