How to emulate the "Create Routes" tool from ArcGIS?

I have three lines coming from CAD, I have read them and I would like to use “Create Routes”, instead I have used the measure generator. However, the measurements are wrong, and I suppose because on the way the vertices of the line were drawn (in an illogical order).

By using “Create Routes” I could select the coordinate priority (lower left, lower right, upper left, upper right) to tell it to start counting from that point onwards (because the coordinate priority will be different per line). Is there a way that the same can be done in FME?

 

Thanks!
