In 1894, the Northern Railway from Geraldton to Mullewa was opened, and four year later was extended to Cue. A railway station was built at Pindar to service outlieing farms, and the townsite of Pindar was gazetted on 22 February 1901.[1]
The surrounding areas produce wheat and other cereal crops. The town is a receival site for Cooperative Bulk Handling.[2]
