- **Event Description**: Daniel Hadley Presents: “Becoming A Professional Railfan”

Merging a person's hobby and their profession is not always easy.

A major railfan video producer was looking to expand, and we found one another at an opportune time. The program explains how this came about and explores many of the videos I produced. The program was originally done for The Center For Railroad Photography and Art. One aspect requested was that I speak about the differences between shooting stills and video. Now that's a real can of worms, but I believe there's an answer here.

About the speaker:
As far back as I can remember, I've been interested in railroading. I owe that to my father who, though not a railfan in the modern sense, seemed to enjoy taking me down to the roundhouse, station, or switching tower. An early memory was being lifted into the cab of a steam locomotive and seeing the gates of hell open as the fireman shoveled coal. I was hooked!

In college, I majored in Broadcast Communication Arts and worked at various TV jobs. In 1980, I landed at WLS TV in Chicago where I worked directly for the ABC television network, doing segments for Good Morning America, Nightline, and local news. In 1990, that came to a screeching halt when ABC began layoffs. Being an avid railroad photographer and a professional videographer and editor, I decided to try marrying these two aspects of my life and, amazingly, it worked.
