    Another option is the one used on a couple of wagons at the Bluebell, which is to use a wagon sheet. The wagon itself contains a rough frame knocked up from scrap timber, which has the dual role of simulating the shape of a load, and also ensuring that the sheet doesn't sag and pool water. It does rather hide your lovely wagon though!
