Why are these videos so oddly satisfying? I’ve been procrastinating now for like 45 minutes
Dopamine
420kms in only 18 years holy cow
Yup. And additional 220km is under construction and are scheduled to open in next 3 years!
@@MetroLiner Holy f 😶. When I think that most of the chinese cities grew like this, it becomes terrifying
Chengdu is even more insane. Didn’t get their first line until 2010, now at 520 km
@@skypesos wow chinese cities man
not every Chinese cities grow like this, shenzhen is the third biggest city in China and it is one of the richest city in china, that's why it grows so fast. most ordinary cities including my city grow very slow.
I think you should show extensions one by one, not multiple at the sametime. When more extensions opens at the same time in different part of the city it is hard to keep eye on them and video becomes quite messy.
yes that would be really nice
I don't agree.. I think it shows you the true rythm of construction
Nope. It's just fine as time goes on.
Yeah you should show like how MetroCucumber does.
Has Shenzen built more metro in 20 years than the whole USA combined in the last 60? Seems so
Absolutely crazy stuff
Simply because Shenzhen as a modern city is a very recent contraption. Its population was just 351,900 in 1982, which mushroomed to 1,667,400 in 1990, 7,008,400 in 2000, 10,424,000 in 2010 and 17,560,100 in 2020. This was because Shenzhen was designated as a special economic zone in the 1980s, which changed the entire landscape from a small town surrounded by farmland into the fourth largest city in China in 40 years.
In such a situation, they are able to build transport links in tandem with new suburbs which sprouted up. There is no need to consider old districts to preserve, existing infrastructure to avoid, existing owners to evict or compensate, etc, etc.
@@huaiwei
It is an interesting concept. Building an economic power house and crown jewel with heavy amounts of central planning out of virtually nothing.
Most cities and city blocks that have tried that have failed spectacularly. Usually cities need to grow organically to be at their most efficient. Shenzhen is definitely an interesting case-study.
What a rapidly growing metro system! 🤩
wow.. this was really fast paced. guess that’s to kinda match its rapid growth, huh?
Yes! The pacing was increased a little bit compared to previous videos. I'm aiming to make videos a bit shorter. Do you find it too fast?
@@MetroLiner a bit, i think it looks better when you segment additions, like multiple lines being added since it’s hard to keep your eyes on two things at once without going cross-eyed.
@@Cassandria Epsiecially at 2:12 when four extensions were opened at the same time, the video was quite messy.
@@MetroLiner Yeah, it was a bit too fast paces in my opinion
Hey @@MetroLiner! Can you do A Evolution of SkyTrain Vancouver for me please??? :) Vancouverites will be happy to watch your video when you include Expo Line, Millennium Line and the Canada Line! :) Are you planning to make a video of Montreal Metro, Calgary C-Train and Edmonton Light Rail Evolution?
I actually quite like this fast quick video. So much information keeps the attention. The video speed reflects how fast the Shenzhen Metro is expanding.
Futian Checkpoint was called Huanggang before the Lok Ma Chau Checkpoint and Futian Checkpoint were opened.
Line 8 was planned in pink colour and it was expected to build as monorail but it was delayed for funding problem. Finally it was combined with Line 2 so now this two lines are offering through service. However, the Metro wrote "Line 8" on the platforms of Yantian Road direction and "Line 2" on the platforms of Chiwan direction. It looks so strange....
Amazing work! I actually enjoy the style of multiple lines at once. It kind of highlights the rapidity of expansion.
You should show the extensions separately, it's too confusing to follow. Also, the station names looked kind of messy. Great work though!
Nice One Bro👍
Your video is very nice!but there is a mistake
6 branch’s colour is different with Line 6

In my minecraft creative world i built 11 metro systems 2 commuter rail systems and a big rail network that serves the whole server in just 8 months lol same progress in chinese cities but faster...... and i also built about 20 cities around my minecraft world
I was born in Shenzhen, but I moved to SF in 2016
On top of this, the metro will also connect to an inter-city rail network that is also under construction, and also the cross border checkpoints with Hong Kong. And you should also show the high speed rail tracks that they are building.... The overlays of all these will help to visualize the reason behind certain expansion in the Shenzhen metro system
No. The map would then be unreadable.
China's metro stations are getting better and better every year
the line six branch, 11extension, 12,14, and 16 are about to open not planned and line six branch is a different line.
line 6 is an A type and 6 branch is B type
please do prague metro
It is on channel "directionnorth".
@@pieterwatson611 thank u (:
meanwhile the elizabeth line had years of delays
The Shenzhen metro did not have to figure out its way past existing buildings and infrastructure which can be over a thousand years old.
Actually (i read that) "Elizabeth line" is not a metro line, but an urban rail line, like RER in Paris. This is evidenced by a different method of supply power than all other metro lines.
Shenzhen's metro developed so fast that they become one of the best metro systems in 20 years, while other ones took at least 50.
Hi! Please make a video of Jakarta MRT and it's future expansion. it should be interesting. Thank You
Can you do the BART system next please?
Shen Zhen in 2050: Having 40 lines with 50 stations each 💀
Two words. GOSH. DANG.
Which applications do you use to make such animations? I've searched UA-cam but found nothing.
Where can I learn?
"It's impossible to build a fast, reliable, complete public transit network that quick ! We must stick to cars !"
China : lmao hold my beer
Need update with the new 2028 plan and 2030 plan with it's 33 metro lines ,❤️
I'm excited for Chicago
I hope this evolves this one over year! With my map
4:46 Is it the future Shenzhen Bay Border Crossing Station?
yes
Since it partially operated by MTR, Is the fare integrated with MTR Hongkong too? I heard thousands of people commuting between both cities daily.
P.S. : Since Metro Liner posting urban rail network in mountainous/hilly coastal urban area like Oslo, Rio de Janeiro, Hongkong, Shenzhen (maybe Osaka can be included too), I think this acc can post more similar cities like Busan, Kobe, Sendai, Sapporo, Fukuoka, Mumbai, Kuala Lumpur, Vancouver, San Francisco, Algiers, Marseille, İstanbul, İzmir, Athena, Napoli, Barcelona, Valencia.
Valencia has suburban rail, not metro, despite name "metro" of this system.
@@pieterwatson611 Ah, yes. I just realised that it just underground commuter rail like in Frankfurt, Zürich, Sydney, and Melbourne. So, let's we change it with Lisboa and Bilbao.
@@muhammadfariz2839 Sydney has one line of metro from 2019y. System in Bilbao is also not obvious, because it looks more like a suburban rail than a metro. After all, it was built on the former suburban line, but meets the criteria of a metro, in addition to the unwritten rule that the metro only serves the city with its nearest suburbs, Bilbao metro system serves (partially) the metropolitan region.
@@pieterwatson611 Yeah, I really know that Sydney have too. But what I'm saying is Sydney Trains and Metrovalencia are having similar system: commuter rail with sharing tunnel of many lines of those systems in inner city section.
As far as I know, there is no fare integration with Hongkong MTR. I'd say it's fairly pointless as the time you would spend going through customs and immigration would overshadow any time savings of having an integrated fair system.
Please do saint-peterburg🇷🇺 metro
In on channel "metrocucumber".
When I'm born in Hong Kong, I'm was woke up, I believe it I'm in Shenzhen is.
BRANCH LINE 6 AND LINE 12 IS NOT EARLIER THAN LINE 14 BRANCH LINE 6 IS DARKER THAN LINE 6
This is a lot of drilling in just 20 years!!!
line 33 in end of 2025 actually (its called line 33 because it was from another company)
Social credit +15 for introducing China metro
I can't wait for Wuhan Metro is.
Wuhan doesnt have a metro, I think
I really wanna see Evolution of Warsaw Metro
It is on channel "DirectionNorth". Poszukaj sobie.
@@pieterwatson611 I saw it but Metro Liner can make better version
crazy how china can build 50km of railway in a single year but in australia that would take 200 years and 3 trillion dollars
A five-year cycle, with multiple lines being constructed at the same time
Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Brussels please
중화인민공화국 광둥성 선전시 버스노선 역사
Unbelievable
Yeahhh Shenzhen!!!!
Apollo?
Many of these lines are not metro, because metro is city (urban) system. So many lines are actually suburban rail.
Chinese cities dont even have suburbs
Can we download the final map 2025?
West Taiwan really does well its metros
There will growing to 1000km in 2028
last visited in 2014 and didn't even recognize the 2022 version 🤯
Great video 👍 Love from China
I am from Shenzhen and I want to point out some mistakes in your video 😃
1. Branch Line 6 is a standalone line. Its trains and the line colour are different from Line 6.
Its colour is Pantone 3282C.
2. Line 16 should open in 2022 but Line 13 will be opened in 2024 (according to the official news).
In the forum, we think that Line 13 will open from Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint to Gongming North in 2024.
3. Hmm... I think Fulin is not going to open soon, because of the Lok Ma Chau Loop.
4. The station names on L12 and L16 has been confirmed (only Chinese names), but I don't know if Shenzhen Metro will change the names just before opening. most of the people do not satisfy with the names now...
Overall, a great video 😃
13的西丽高铁站会甩站罢，后面开通的一系列新线这个站应该也都会甩掉，说是还没洞通不知道真的假的
@@hansishen623313会分段开通，一期深圳湾口岸 - 科苑，西丽高铁站会暂缓
16号线已开通
深圳能用油管吗?
哥们你深圳哪里的。我罗湖的
Also to note, that, in the early years of this system, the station names were originally romanisations of Chinese names. Only later they decided to add the translated names (such as Shijiezhichuang -> Window of the World (after theme park, which appeared in one of episodes of The Amazing Race)).
To be very honest, if Line 8 and line 5 are using the same technology, it should be merged into a loop line and the line 8 spur either to operate on its own or to operate like Japan's Oedo Line.
the fact that it reached 420km worth of track was cool in just 18 years
And 40,000km of high speed rail too 14 years too.
The population of the city grew from 8 million to 17 million from 2008😐
@@nehcooahnait7827 Wow
Update ： Line 16 to be open in 2022.
If you could make the built-up areas on the map a bit darker that would be nice. At times I couldn’t make out what the stations were built for.
Well in Shenzhen if it ain’t green or blue it is part of the city, fully build up with houses, offices and of course factories. It is very dense, probably 7,000 people/km2 now.
Wait… yeah this map it is so bad it doesn’t even mark the natural reserves/mountains as green
But China sometimes opens metro stations in the middle of nowhere to spark development. I remember there was this old meme of a metro entrance in the middle of a grass field and now that metro entrance is in the middle of a sprawling neighborhood.
I really hope Line 13 to open soon because every time I fly between US and China, I usually fly to HK first, then take a shuttle to Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint, which is where line 13 will serve, and taking the subway from my house to the checkpoint can reduce my time and distance between my 2 homes
Do the Vancouver skytrain
I don't know how but your offer actually came true!
Buenos Aries Pls
That’s just nuts! It’s unbelievable how the Chinese can power through and build an entire citywide metro system in under 20 years yet it takes over nearly 8 years to build one line in Sydney!
The power of nation
@@franklinclinton2998 the power of dictatorship.
China doesn't care, they just bulldoze what's in the way. Meanwhile in other countries, you need to liaise with landowners, etc
Sydney also had a fast growing phase in history. Chinese cities are are catching up in infrastructure and in a different development (or evolving ) stage.
Shenzhen really needs to chill.
Also, they need to change the color on at least two of Lines 2, 8 and 13 because they're all orange. And where are Lines 15 and 17-19? Seems like they're still not done
Вторая и восьмая линии - одно и тоже :)
Shenzhen is my 3rd favourite city in China. Well done.
Lived in Shenzhen 2015-2023 and used the metro hundreds of times. Other than any extensions from July 2023, I was on EVERY line...it was a goal. The SZMC did a great job, with the exception of needing to have a "driver" on a couple of the lines, particularly line 12. I was able to get video from the front of the train after they opened the line, but the opportunity to be at the front was quickly removed for the trips on the line.
Idea: Tbilisi metro
Like your vids
Why are trains in Shenzhen "A6" capacity or even "B6" when clearly the demand is higher than can support those trains. Shenzhen population is 17 million, the system should be built to serve 15 million passengers daily.
"(A" means type A chinese trains, "B" means type B chinese trains, and "6" meaning 6 car train length.)
Hong Kong is the only city i feel has done it right, serving 6 million passengers peak in Jan 2019 when their population is 7.5 million
It's simply perfect omg
More Chinese cities please!
Are on other channel, look for yourself.
ua-cam.com/play/PLJZrRogxN5409UZQLLWYATTxQDFqYcZLl.html Here you are playlist of videos of chinese metro systems.
I had visited Shenzhen quite a few times when I lived in Hong Kong as a kid round 1996-2001. I just remember, there was insane number of construction going around across the city around 2000-2001.
… there are still insane amount of construction… I spent a summer with my dad in his office in 2017. A huge parking lot and an empty block next to it was transformed into a high school within two months, and opened for new students the day I left.
My hometown was developing faster than I thought these days, and the subway network was growing even faster. When I was in SF, I have to face traffic everyday
it has been confirmed that line 14 and line 10 gangsha north and line 11 futian-gangsha north will be opened on 28th Oct.
and line 12 will be opend on 28th Dec
Oh, thanks for the useful information!
The Shenzhen metro has been growing A LOT! I recently went there and the I have seen that on the maps there is still one line yet to open. They are really expanding fast.
This iw why China has already escaped the middle income trap
I understand that China is a massive country with millions of its people and the ever growing of trains and railways that are still expanding across China.
Do the evolution of metro for Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China and Chengdu, Sichuan, China plz. It is more amazing than Beijing, Shanghai, or Shenzhen. For Hangzhou, you can see the miracle from zero kilometer to 607 kilometers within one decade (From first line which opened in 2012 to 14 lines now operating in 2022). For Chengdu, you also can see same miracle within one decade (From 2010 to 2020. From zero KM to 518.5 KM. From first line which opened in 2010 to 12 lines now operating which including five lines opened in December 2020. In addition, other lines are under-construction now, and these lines are going to be opened in 2024)
Now you should make a video of Shenzhen and Hong Kong, together.
UA-cam unsubscribed me from this channel without my consent, what?
I'm Goes to Shenzhen 100 times.
*went
Excuse me, how the fuck do they have the money to build all of this???
The subway is mainly built by a state-owned enterprise called Shenzhen Metro Group Company, Limited.

Damn, this kinda looks like TTC Subway quit Canada to go legit.
shenzhen great
Omg! Finally my hometown!! Tysm❤❤
A little too fast showing all the subway lines of Shenzhen China. Maybe show them one by one, that's my suggestion.
Excelent video
據我了解，現在的深圳地鐵總長度，是全世界排名第4位。
順帶一提，全世界排名前10位的地鐵總長度，中國佔了第1位至第9位，而俄羅斯是第10位。🙈
深圳在中国都到不了第四位😅😅😅
@@elderidgechebahtah8100 對丫，現在是第5位，比第4位只差3公里。😅
上海，北京，廣州，成都，深圳，重慶，杭州，武漢，南京。
Its not about the length, it about commuting time.
Can you please do Guangzhou? My entire family is there and I want to keep up with its metro system
Nice video, can you do one for Kuala Lumpur. My local metro in Kuala Lumpur is growing even though our city is not as big as London
It is on the "geotransit" channel but no stations are shown there.
no se andan con mamadas los chinos
ShenZhen Metro is my favorite ❤
Line 8 extension is already here😂
wisg america was this cool
I can't believe when I was born the metro station nearby is still under construction
The Line 14 of Eastern Express of Shenzhen-Huizhou Line is opened at October 28, 2022 (Before Halloween).
Crazy
I Saw My Home🙂
Update: Line 6B, Line 10, Line 12, Line 14, Line 16, have opened.
Gangxia North has become an interchange for Line 2, Line 10, Line 14, Line 16
Line 10, Line 14, Line 16 opened last year
You also missed a stop. There is also a branch line at "Shenyun Station" of Line 7 to "Wenti park Station". It's just that this station is in Shenyun Depot, so this station is currently only open to internal staff of Shenzhen Metro, and there is no date for the public opening.
