I enjoy their color-based aesthetic, and I'm glad that the network is as extensive as it is--but lots of work to do

But it won't be extensive enough until there's T service from Boston to Hampshire & Berkshire.

mostly state taxes iirc, plus local and federal contributions they should be aiming for profitability!

they'd have to branch out for that though I bet, and lease rail-adjacent properties etc

not necessarily--profitable railways elsewhere get most of their money from passengers...
