A method for the transport of elongated workpieces and workers, in a production line which has a rectilinear production section. A plurality of conveyor trolleys, which respectively have an assembly platform that extends over the whole of the conveyor trolley length and is accessible for workers, move in the rectilinear production section jointly along a direction of conveyance and form a convoy in which the assembly platforms of adjacent conveyor trolleys adjoin one another in an at least substantially gap-free manner. The workpieces are arranged in such a way on the assembly platforms that a longitudinal direction of the workpieces is arranged at an angle between 25° and 65°, and preferably of about 45°, to the direction of conveyance.
