How do we get Atlas to do a MUCH more modern Mill Gondola? They have them in HO scale but none in O. I need 5 or 8 of these.

Curtis, the old Atlas forum had countless requests for more intermodal, centrebeams, modern boxcars etc, in fact I recall, I believe, that 2010 was going to be the year for intermodal, little actually transpired. It's going to be a long wait for the items I want, there is no point in listing them here, this subject has been covered ad nauseum. I have tried to encourage Exactrail to produce in O scale, perhaps others could also try and persuade them. When Atlas do produce in Masterline, like the new 25k gallon cars the results are superb. I think you may have a long wait for that Thrall.
Go in competition with them - produce your own.
Atlas makes the Evans Products gondola in N Scale and HO Scale, but to get the Evans Products gondola in O Scale everyone has to buy it from B.T.S..
Everybody who needs and wants the Thrall Car and Evans Products modern gondolas made in ready-to-run O Scale they will have to post images and text asking for them on the Atlas Model R.R. facebook page. It will have to be a request by specific railroad scheme for each car. If you make too broad of a request, they will tune you out.
