This will show the difference between a locomotive valve and the one asked about.
Here is a cut-away diagram of the New York Air Brake locomotive straight air (locomotive) brake valve. The scan is was made from "Instruction Pamphlet No. 8," Third Edition, dated "Revised March, 1911" for "LT Automatic Control Equipment" -- "LT" meaning Locomotive and Tender.
