A new Docker image is available for training DeepSpeech models using a GPU backend. The image is based on Mozilla's DeepSpeech 0.7.4 one for training models, adding more functionality to it:

support for MP3 and OGG files, not just WAV
automatic alphabet generation from the transcripts
split sound files into chunks based on detected pauses
batch process audio files (can be continuous)
many Python utilities have been sym-linked

More information on the Docker image is available from Github:
