Also as someone with actual experience of working with and writing for  
brass bands ;-)

I know the thread wasn't about the UK, but in the UK really all brass  
band lower brass read in treble clef other than the bass trombone in  
bass clef and non-transposing.
IME there is still a clear distinction between Eb and Bb (BBb) basses  
(tubas), but both read in treble with trumpet fingerings (i.e. 'C' is  
open or 1st for trombone).
