Any connection to Harris and Hasell?

Harris and Hasell built the BAT buses after they stopped importing Reo buses (and partl building chassis for those). BAT was the trademark for the Harris and Hassel buses.

This is precisely what I was getting at. And in this case, B.A.T. wasn't the British Automobile Traction Company, it was British Associated Transport (no connection to Tilling that I'm aware of).

.. and I am sorry to mislead with Tilling, as I trusted in my source without further research.
