Hi Dean,
this sounds like a good job for iExpressions.
To place a bunch of layers along a line, use one of these:
Distribute 2D Line -

Distribute 3D Line -
http://bit.ly/12sHMcw
If you want all of them to follow the opacity change of the first
one, but with a time delay, you can link the opacity for each of
them to the opacity of the first one using a
Simple Link 1D -
http://bit.ly/17620bQ
After you linked, you can click on the triangle before the link to
reveal the link options where you can set a time delay
(The amount of time delay is the only thing you need to adjusted
for each layer manually)
Cheers,
Mathias
