thought the culture was supposed to be capitalism.

At least 18 million people were living there last time I checked.

If there is people, there is culture.

And, great renders for the station. Looks wonderful.

Shenzhen is an entirely immigrant city, much like San Francisco or Chicago 100 years ago. Hardly anyone will say 我是深圳人, so there is no identity, and no culture. Apart from a few tacky theme parks and tourist traps, and hundreds of malls, there's little to do if you have a day off unless you cross the border. It will take decades for those cultural identities to develop and the government can't rush this development like it rushes physical infrastructure.

I've heard a new line is set to opening in October. If true, what line is and from where to where will run?

The Long Gang Line(Line 3 in number system) from Shuang Long to Cao Pu which is the overground part of the line. But it will be pre-opened due to the under construction of the underground bit and free for passengers with irregular operation..

Proposed map to be used for in-car route info (similar to HKMTR's map lighting system)

That's a very busy map at first glance, and unusual way of denoting interchanges.
