you can build this functionality using the DDL() construct provided by  
SQLAlchemy:

http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/sqlalchemy_schema.html#docstrings_sqlalchemy.schema_DDL

the ForeignKey objects on the table can be pulled out using:

for c in table.c:
        for fk in c.foreign_keys:
                do_something_with_fk(fk)
