For p epsilon {3,4} and all p' > p, with p' coprime to p, we obtain fermionic expressions for the combination chi(p,p')(1,s) + q(Delta)chi (p,p')(p-1,s) of Virasoro (W (2)) characters for various values of s, and particular choices of Delta. Equating these expressions with known product expressions, we obtain q-series identities which are akin to the Andrews-Gordon identities. For p = 3, these identities were conjectured by Bytsko. For p = 4, we obtain identities whose form is a variation on that of the p = 3 cases. These identities appear to be new.The case (p,p') = (3,14) is particularly interesting because it relates not only to W-2, but also to W-3 characters, and offers W-3 analogues of the original Andrews-Gordon identities. Our fermionic expressions for these characters differ from those of Andrews et al. which involve Gaussian polynomials.
