SQLAlchemy is broadly separated into 2 parts, "core" and "ORM" (which you can 
see as the left and right-hand sides on the  front page of the documentation, 
http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_8/)

Table objects like the one you have below are part of the Core API. Columns of 
Table objects are accessible via the "c" property:

  process_files.c.process_id

The ORM is built on top of the core API. When you do something like:

  class Files(Base):
      __tablename__ = 'files'
      id = sa.Column('id', sa.Integer, primary_key=True)

…you are creating a "mapped class". You can access the columns of these 
directly like "Files.id". If you ever need access to the underlying Table 
object, you can get it from Files.__table__.

When using things like session.query(), you can often use tables or mapped 
classes interchangeably.

Hope that helps,

Simon
