Did you notice: Shenzen subway symbol looks very similar to HK MTR?

Here is the HK subway (MTR) logo:



The one in Shenzen (a city 30 mins North of HK) is almost the exact same, but has a 2nd vertical red line down the middle.

I couldn't find the logo on Google or Flickr, but maybe a Google Ninja could find one to show you guys.v

The Shenzhen Metro also uses Bombardier trains! At least our state supported company is managing to sell some of its stuff...

And this thread is pointless.

Is it due to:

1) MTR partnering with Shenzen gov't to create the subway?
2) China's standard symbol for subway? (Not sure if Beijing has the same, to)
3) Just lazy designers?

MTR did take part in *some* of the Shenzhen lines, but that shouldn't be the reason why the logos look so much alike. Beijing subway's logo is totally different, not to say that clinging to certain standards is not exactly the Chinese way these days. But then to be fair, logos of subway around the world are kind of similar: they either consist of the letter M or some rail-like lines.
