the british rail class 180 adelante is a class of 14 diesel-hydraulic multiple-unit passenger trains built by alstom at washwood heath in 2000/01 for first great western (fgw). they are part of the coradia 1000 family, along with the class 175. after recurring technical problems with the trains, fgw handed them all back to leasing company angel trains in 2008/09. after a period in store, they were leased to hull trains and grand central, while the remaining five units returned to service with fgw. the latter five have since moved to grand central, whilst the four hull trains units have been transferred to east midlands railway.
