Please see this attached script that accomplishes your task. It was shared with the GrADS community last winter via email from Ivana Stiperski. The related output is attached as well.

Subject: Script for arbitrary cross-sections with terrain

Hi

As far as I know a grads script that draws terrain in an arbitrary cross
section has not been compiled yet. So I've made one :) and am attaching it
for general use. hope it serves its purpose!

the prerequisite is that you have either a terrain variable (in this
script called topo) or something that can mimic the terrain in your grib
file.

cheers
Ivana
