Pinner is an above-ground station of the London Underground in the London Borough of Harrow . It is in the Travelcard tariff zone 5 on Marsh Road. The station served by the Metropolitan Line was used by 2.61 million passengers in 2013.

The station is on the four-track section between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Moor Park . Only the two northern tracks have side platforms; local trains of the Metropolitan Line stop at these. Express trains of the Metropolitan Line as well as all trains of the railway company Chiltern Railways run on the two southern tracks without stopping.

The station was opened on May 25, 1885 by the Metropolitan Railway (predecessor of the Metropolitan Line). This was the terminus for a little over two years before the line was extended further towards Rickmansworth on September 1, 1887 . On January 5, 1925, the Harrow-on-the-Hill - Rickmansworth section was electrified . In 1961, the line between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Northwood Hills was given a second double track. The pedestrian underpass to the platforms had to be closed in 2002 for safety reasons, a bridge was built to replace it.
