They're disappearing because LilyPond is sizing the barline to fit the
staff lines. With only one staff line, the staff symbol is thin, so
the barlines are shrunk to a very small size.
Kieren's suggestion works great. If you need only one staff line and
only one pitch, another possibility is to use a RhythmicStaff:
\new RhythmicStaff {
c4 c c c | c d e f
}
There are some differences between rhythmic staves and normal staves
with one barline. If you want multiple pitches, a normal staff might
be better.
Hope this helps!
