You may place your wagon on the tile just placed instead of placing a meeple. A wagon may be placed most places a meeple may normally be placed (road, city, monastery, abbey), but it may not be placed in a field.
When scoring a feature a wagon occupies, the wagon is treated like a normal meeple.
After scoring, you may return the wagon to your supply, or you may move it to a directly adjacent unoccupied, incomplete feature. Adjacent, in this case, means that the feature is on the same tile or a tile orthogonally or diagonally adjacent to the tile the wagon is moving from. If there are no such features for your wagon to move to, it must be returned to your supply.
If several wagons are involved in a scoring phase, each concerned player chooses whether to return or move their wagon in clockwise order starting with the active player.

The last example on the WikiCarPedia page is very interesting. For
whatever reason, maybe a dragon ate the meeples, or a player with no
meeples placed the tile(s), the map looks like this example!
The wagon is place on the ⓪ tile to complete the city and scores 16
points, then the wagon can be moved to the Monastery.
This could make playing the game with Dragons and Wagons very
interesting!
A player draws and places a Dragon tile and the Dragon then eats all of
the meeples on a very valuable incomplete city. You draw a tile that
cannot be placed to directly claim the now unoccupied city, but it can
complete a feature that is next to the city, so you place your wagon on
the new tile, complete the feature, and then move your wagon to claim
the city that you actually wanted!
