Shenzhen metro uses same logo as HK metro. Does it mean one day the two systems will join together?

"One country, two systems" will go on until 2047. Not to mention that HK has one of the most liberal visa regimes for foreigner visitors, China one of the strictest.

For the record, it isn't exactly the same.

City to spend¥14b on rail

SHENZHEN will spend 14 billion yuan (US$2.12 billion) on rail projects this year with Shenzhen North Railway Station expected to open in June.

A meeting of the city rail transport and construction office was told Tuesday that the construction of Metro lines 7, 9 and 11 would start this year.

Metro Line 7 would run from Shenzhen Safari Park in Xili, Nanshan District, to Buxin in Luohu District with 23 stations. Line 11 would connect the intercity rail for Shenzhen, Dongguan and Guangzhou in the north, ending at Futian Station on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong railway line.

Line 9 was still under planning but would cover most areas of Futian and Luohu by connecting Shangsha, Futian and Shenzhen Railway Station in Luohu District.

The work would be completed on five Metro lines that would be opened by June 30. By then, the total length of Metro network would be 178 kilometers.

ok here is another one
the stations are named with Hakka - one of the native language in shenzhen, other than Cantonese (not Mandarin Chinese)
to make this one it is just for fun
and show the native culture in the city
you can see the difference between the two maps
we have to use mandarin to present the name of places in the city
lets see the "original" version

…at which time, if the Chinese government is smart, it will renew the policy (the law is that it can be renewed, not that it will end forever unless decided otherwise).

Oh and I actually can't tell apart MTR and the Shenzhen Metro. It's scary how similar they are.

Could somebody present a map of end of June 2011 which includes the railways and railway stations?

Precisely when in June shall Guangzhou-Shenzhen high speed railway open?

One country, 2 systems is promised till 1st of July, 2047. But the Goverment of China being smart has also founded Shenzhen special economic zone, where they are not bound by treaty promises to anyone. A big news in July 2010 was that the SEZ was expanded from just one fifth of Shenzhen to the whole Shenzhen. How much is it felt in Shenzhen?

Would 2 systems be extended to Shenzhen before 2047?

By 2047, people in Shenzhen/China could be wealthier than the people in HK.

So HK might not want it to be renewed lol

By 2047 expansion in Shenzhen infrastructure will be accomplished through US-sourced labor.

It looks like MTR designed and operates the new line.

When these USians come to Shenzhen, whether to labour in July 2047 or to attend Universiad in August 2011, how long is the green line between Baoan Airport and Luohu?

Only the Longhua Line is operated by MTR the other Lines are operated by Chinese companies. Most stations incorporate MTR designs but not strictly design by MTR.
