ANCHORAGE - Fur Rondy and Iditarod officials are working with the Alaska Railroad to send snow by rail from Fairbanks to Anchorage ahead of the ceremonial start of the Iditarod and the Running of the Reindeer event Saturday.

The unseasonably warm weather and lack of snow have caused officials to resort to shipping snow to the city. "We haven't had to do this before," said Fur Rondy executive director, Jeff Barney.
