Morning peak trains to London tend to be considerably busier than evening peak trains from London. Perhaps because demand is spread out over a narrower time period in the morning; most business passengers wanting to arrive prior to 10am.
On one occasion when I travelled on the 06:43 Manchester to Euston and it was 9 cars (instead of the diagrammed 11 cars), it was standing room only in first and there were a handful of seats remaining in standard. The date of that journey was after the railcard easement was abolished but before Advance ticket fares were dramatically cut in price.
