A bottom outlet valve for a tank on a vehicle, especially for a railway tank car. The valve comprises a valve body including a valve seat, a valve stem spring biased toward the closed position against the seat and an operator assembly for mechanically opening and closing the valve stem. The operator assembly may be removed from the valve body in an improved facile manner by means of bolts all located exterior of the operator housing. A lost motion linkage allows the stem to seat under spring pressure even though the stem seals have become worn. The assembly has been uniquely designed to permit easier and safer installation and maintenance of the valve due in part to an improved stem cage assembly.
