An access plate mounted between the pipe bracket portion and either the service portion or the emergency portion of a railway freight brake control valve. Passageways are provided through the access plate, each passageway terminating in a respective access port along an end of the access plate. Openings extend through opposed sides of the access plate, intersecting respective access plate passageways. The openings on each side are sized and positioned to sealingly align with openings of the pipe bracket portion and either the emergency portion or the service portion. The openings on the pipe bracket portion, emergency portion and service portion connect to passageways communicating to the brake pipe, the brake cylinder retaining valve, the brake cylinder, the emergency reservoir and the auxiliary reservoir. A housing may be attached to the pipe bracket portion to connect to the access ports, such housing preferably having a valve means for preventing the escape of fluid pressure therefrom. An adaptor may engage with the housing, opening the valve means and allowing the fluid under pressure to enter the adaptor. A removable outer cover may be provided over the access housing once the adaptor is removed for providing additional sealing of the fluid under pressure.
