I told the user that he/she would need to create multiple Timeline views for this purpose. The user wanted to know how to display different sets of tasks in the Timeline view in Microsoft Project 2013. In fact, just this past week, I answered a question about this in the Office Answers – Microsoft Project user forum. I suspect that many project managers do not realize that you can create multiple Timeline views in Microsoft Project 2010, 2013, or even in the 2016 version.
