Hendon railway station is a National Rail station situated to the west of Hendon, in the London Borough of Barnet in North London, at grid reference TQ221882. The station is served by First Capital Connect trains. It is on the boundary of Travelcard Zone 3 and Travelcard Zone 4.

It was built by the Midland Railway in 1868 on its extension to St. Pancras. From 1875 the Midland opened a service to Victoria on the London, Chatham and Dover Railway and received coaches from the London and South Western Railway for attachment to north-bound trains.

The typical off-peak service from the station is four trains per hour southbound to London, Wimbledon and Sutton, and four trains per hour northbound, of which two terminate at St Albans and two run to Luton.
