The Trident has both. The AMT is driven by the elevator control.
And hinged on the back are elevators that move also, in the same sense (i.e. they are not a balance tab) and are coupled to the tailplane movement.
On the Tu 154 the fairing ahead of the fin is more prominent, but as you say the arrangement is similar.
