There are a plurality of pallets movable by frictional engagement with the chain for carrying work pieces along the trackway between the work stations. A second trackway is provided adjacent the first trackway loop section and has a continuous flat flexible chain, the second trackway has an upper level section and a lower level section with the upper level section being in the same horizontal plane as the first trackway. The second trackway has two legs connected by an intermediate section with both legs in pallet transfer communication with the first trackway. The lower level section of the second trackway is spaced below the upper level section and has two legs- connected by an intermediate section with each leg of the lower level section being connected to a corresponding leg of the upper level section to form a continuous loop. The second continuous trackway is driven independent of the first trackway and there is a switch for diverting the pallets to either the first trackway loop section or the upper level of the second trackway.
