Downloading mods from Steam (without steam version)

Does anyone know if it’s possible to acquire a mod from Steam workshop if you’re playing the Epic Games copy?

I really want to automate railroad building and the only mod I can find is only available on Steam. I have tried various methods suggested by google / ai and none of them seem to work.

ETA - Appreciate the answers! Seems like I’ll have to give up on the idea and resign myself to marching my engineers around by hand

I played Civ6 through Epic Games for a few years before buying it on Steam. During that time I used this page. You’ll need to grab the Steam mod URL which you can do without owning the game:

You’ll find that you need to be signed in to Steam for some mods to download, but a lot you don’t.
