Sorry, I'm not too familiar with this, does it refer to specific classes of loco? What about DMUs?

If it operates with a Diesel Hydraulic engine then its fine - you'll have to look into it yourself really, I'm not listing every diesel hydraulic as there are loads!

In the UK a Hydraulic is generally a Class 35, Class 42 or a Class 52. But as jordy says there are plenty of others not just UK based the Germans had quite a thing with Hydraulic designs at one point.

Sprinters, Turbostars, Coradias, Adelantes... most 1xx stock would count, they are diesel-hydraulic multiple units after all

basically any second gen unit in the 1xx series apart from the PPM and 172 would count - as would 127s

Yep, they (along with all other Sprinters) have a hydraulic transmission.
