Wildlife Prairie Park is located west of Peoria. From I-74, take Exit 82 to Kickapoo/Edward St, then drive south to the zoo on the left. After passing through the admission gate ($8 for adults), drive to the end of the road and park, then head for the visitor center. The wagon is located in a circle surrounded by pavement.
The wagon is a rustic wooden vehicle with a wood chassis base, four wagon wheels, a long tow bar, and looping hoops supporting a canvas covering. The towbar has a modern trailer hitch on it. Part of the wagon is unpainted and some, including the wheels, are painted yellow. The seat has leaf-springs.
