I forgot. Yes, HARMONY did recognise the T as a trill, but this is not yet displayed. HARMONY was never intended as a scoring package, so many of the decorators are ignored.
You CAN implement an audible trill using the Note Style facility, but it is not yet integrated with the abc import.

Actually, the "clef=bass middle=d" should suffice to  get  the  notes
positioned  on the staff correctly.  The "transpose=-24" is mostly of
interest when generating a sound file, saying that the notes  are  to
sound  two  octaves below the default pitch.  It can be handy to have
these note-to-staff and note-to-pitch mappings independent. People do
write music for instruments with several different ranges on the same
part of the staff.

It usually means a trill, the "TR"  ligature  above  the  note.   But
there's a scheme to (re)define ornaments now.  I wonder how widely it
has been implemented?
