The idiom "along the line of something" originated from the railroad industry, specifically in the late 19th century and in reference to the tracks or lines along which trains would travel. Over time, the phrase gained a figurative sense and became more widely used beyond the railroad industry and began to be used more broadly to describe actions or developments within a specific context or framework. Today, it is commonly used when discussing processes, strategies, or guidelines that guide progression or alignment.
