You can do this with CSS, using the :after pseudo selector. This worked for me 
on a test timeline:

.timeline-container:after {
  content: "";
  position:absolute;
  top:0;
  left: 50%;
  width: 2px; /* However thick you want the line to be. */
  margin-left: -1px; /* Half the width, to put the line in the exact center. */
  height: 250px; /* However tall your timeline container is. */
  background-color: red;
  z-index:1000; /* Ensures the line shows above other timeline content. */
}

You could probably also just add an extra div to the timeline's container and 
style it like this, if you need to support IE 7 and earlier (which doesn't 
support the :after pseudo selector).

Best,
Jeremy
