You may notice the tarp folded on top of this ticket wagon. When the business of the day was concluded it was dropped down to enshroud the vehicle as it rode the flats similar to the wagon seen in the picture above.
If they had continued this practice the train wreck in "The Greatest Show on Earth" might have been avoided.
