A conveyor has hangers with article-carrying racks which automatically turn transversely to the direction of movement when the hangers are below angled portions of the conveyor. The conveyor is of the overhead monorail type which moves hangers along a predetermined path having a generally horizontal portion and an angled portion. The hangers carry receptacles which receive upper portions of rack hooks which carry the racks. The receptacles and upper portions of the hooks are angled in a manner to cause upright portions of the hooks to turn on their axes when the hangers move between positions below the horizontal portion of the rail and positions below the angled portion of the rail. When the upright portions of the hooks are turned, the racks are also turned to the transverse positions.
