The spatstat package has facilities for exploratory analysis of point patterns 
on a linear network
(see help for 'lpp'). A special case is a point pattern on a single line. See 
help(spatstat) under 'Linear Networks' for a list of 
functions available. 

Of course if you are willing to assume the points are Poisson, and you want to 
distinguish CSR from inhomogeneous Poisson, you can do this with standard 
methods for random variables - e.g. the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of 
goodness-of-fit to the uniform distribution; density estimation in 1D; etc
