Excellent footage. Very similar to the scenes I saw 1970-1972 commuting between Waterloo and Ascot every weekend. Wasn't the blue emu livery awful.

OLD STYLE CLASSIC TRAINS
4 CORs, a Warship on an up Exeter express - and a Class 74. They must be pretty rare on film.
Cannot be any earlier than 1968 when E6104 was built.
