* TheDreadedToiletDuty: Hyce's story from when he worked for the BNSF as a manager in a locomotive shop, and BNSF 1676 was pulled in for servicing only to find out the toilet pipe had broken and the human waste had filled the entire frame of the locomotive. The estimated weight of the excrement was about 2000+ pounds of waste, meaning it was literally a shit ton!

* TheseusShipParadox: Hyce's argument that the K-37 is not a conversion of the older C-41 locomotives feels like a modern Ship of Theseus debate.

* ShoutOut: To ''Little Engines and Big Men'' by Gilbert A. Lathrop. The main issue though is the book originally published in 1954 is out of print... meaning Hyce's review and small readings from it are both a tribute to it and a way to KeepCirculatingTheTapes until the book's copyright expires and it enters public domain, or the people holding the publishing rights decide to reprint it.

* SteamNeverDies: ''Played with,'' since Hyce frequently visits many heritage and tourist railroads he shows plenty of locations where steam locomotives are still in use; but he doesn't mince words on why its so hard to keep steam locomotives running in the present day. His video on the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMvU-lgPE-A East Broad Top Railroad]] produced in cooperation with Nick Ozorak might be the clearest example of this.

* MemeticMutation: "LIMES!"
** Also staunch arguments that the K-37 does not count as a ''converted'' standard gauge locomotive as well.

Mark was an early member of the ''Railroads Online!'' development team, providing the original soundtrack to the game along with programming support. He and several other developers would eventually leave ''Railroads Online!'' and his soundtrack would be removed from the game, but he has since made it available elsewhere such as on [[https://open.spotify.com/album/0dQ8b7Fdw62PUnPVEMRkJK Spotify]].

!! ''Hyce's'' work contains the following tropes:
* CookingShow: The ''K-37 Kitchen'' series which sees Hyce attempt to cook various foods on a steam locomotive.
* EdutainmentShow: the various Hyce videos at the Colorado Railroad Museum embody this.
