They probably will -if it's financially viable- in order to give interchange with the Met line to Watford Junction (when the Croxley rail link is opened)! I don't know why they stopped- probably because passenger demand wasn't high enough at the time?

Quite the reverse actually. There were too many passengers trying to use the station, especially as the fares were cheaper closer to town the roads became crowded so NSE were encouraged to cease use of the station.
Under the current timetable provisions it is unlikely that this will change!

As a North Harrow resident who regularly heads out to the Chilterns for a day's walking, it was a pain in the neck when the Chiltern trains stopped calling at Moor Park. But I found it was usually just as quick to change at Harrow-on-the-Hill (of course this wouldn't apply from stations further out), and now that the Amersham and Chesham trains usually call at North Harrow, there isn't an issue any more for me.

Not sure if there is any truth but I did hear that the residents don't want Chiltern calling there again, due to the "noisy diesels"!
