The web says:
  "Initial checkin whilst I figure out what format the files are"

I took a quick look and guessed a little:

  #include <stdio.h>

  typedef unsigned long long w36;

  void pchar(char c)
  {
    c &= 0177;
    if ((c < ' ') || (c == 0177))
      c = ' ';
    putchar(c);
  }

  int main(int argc, char* argv[])
  {
    int wnum = 0;
    int c1, c2, c3, c4, c5;
    w36 w;
    int lh, rh;

    for (;;) {
      w  = getchar();
      w <<= 8; w |= getchar();
      w <<= 8; w |= getchar();
      w <<= 8; w |= getchar();
      w <<= 4; c5 = getchar();
      if (c5 == EOF)
	break;
      w |= (c5 & 0x0f);

      lh = w >> 18;
      rh = w & 0777777;
      c1 = (w >> 29) & 0177;
      c2 = (w >> 22) & 0177;
      c3 = (w >> 15) & 0177;
      c4 = (w >> 8) & 0177;
      c5 = (w >> 1) & 0177;

      printf("  %6o:  %9llx  %06o,,%06o", wnum, w, lh, rh);
      printf("  %3o %3o %3o %3o %3o  \"", c1, c2, c3, c4, c5);
      pchar(c1); pchar(c2); pchar(c3); pchar(c4); pchar(c5);
      printf("\"\n");
      wnum += 1;
    }

    return 0;
  }

resulted in:

  [and so on]

Looks like a tape in core-dump format with a header page.

Should be kindof trivial to process these into plain text automagically.
