So I thought this would be easy to do in FME but I've had to revert to ArcToolbox to perform one step prior to running my workbench.  I need to dissolve a street feature class based on an attribute (street_name_id) and keep a few attributes (first record). 

 

 

Here are the settings I use in ArcToolbox - how do I reproduce this in FME?

HI,

 

 

Yes, the LineJoiner corresponds to ArcGIS Dissolver tool (Unsplit Lines) for line geometries. But the Dissolver tool (Create Multipart) creates multi-part line. If you need to create multi-part line, consider using the Aggregator.
