Board size

Because the existing board is so large, Tommy has been cutting the LBs and gluing them so they are deeper. This was a goal to end this process. The new board was made to fit either side to side in the LB or front to back. At first I wanted to make it side to side with the LEDs down the middle of the board such as the existing LED mounting board that I made a few years ago. After trying a number of different board layouts I realized it was not practical and they had to connect to an edge of the board. The original designs had the LED board plugging into the Signal Control Logic Board via a cable. The cost of each of the boards is bout the same for the LED board and the Signal Control board so by combining them the cost drops roughly in half (of the boards).
