Something like this:
clear
set obs 150
gen id = _n
expand 30
bys id: gen t = _n
gen group = (id<=75)
gen x = rnormal() if gr == 0
replace x = rnormal(4,1) if gr == 1
forv i = 1/150 {
if `i' < 76 {
local plotline1 "`plotline1' line x t if id == `i', lc(black) || "
}
else {
local plotline2 "`plotline2' line x t if id == `i', lc(blue) || "
}
}
twoway `plotline1' `plotline2' , legend(order(1 "Group 1" 76 "Group 2"))
