The station is served by Chiltern Railways trains from Marylebone towards High Wycombe and Birmingham Snow Hill, and is in Travelcard Zone 4. This station also has an Oyster card facility located at the entrance and exit. The station is situated between Northolt Park and Sudbury & Harrow Road stations. The station is close to Sudbury Hill Underground station on the Piccadilly line.
History
On 20 November 1905 the Great Central Railway opened a new route for freight trains between Neasden Junction and Northolt Junction. Passenger services from Marylebone began on 1 March 1906, when three new stations were opened: Wembley Hill, Sudbury & Harrow Road and South Harrow.[3] On 2 April 1906 these services were extended to Northolt Junction.[4] On 19 July 1926 South Harrow station was renamed Sudbury Hill Harrow.[5][6]
The service was reduced to peak hours only from 7 September 1964,[7] due to a lack of demand. There was a temporary closure from 22 September 1990 to 7 October 1990.[8] In November 2004, however, following concerted efforts by the London Transport Users Committee (now known as London TravelWatch) an hourly off-peak service was introduced.
