The invention relates to an automatic train coupling with a coupling head which comprises a mechanical coupling lock, wherein the coupling lock is configured as a rotary closure with a coupling lug and a core piece, wherein the core piece can be rotated about a main axis between a coupled position and a decoupled position, the coupling lug is connected to the core piece with a first end such that it can be rotated about a coupling lug axis and has a second free end, and the core piece has a mouth which is arranged to receive a second end of a coupling lug of an opposed coupling head; with a decoupling device which comprises a motor which is connected to the core piece via a drive connection, in order to rotate the core piece out of the coupled position into the decoupled position; with an electric contact coupling which can be displaced in a longitudinal direction of the coupling head in order to make contact with an opposed electric contact coupling; wherein the electric contact coupling is drive-connected to the decoupling device in order to displace it in the longitudinal direction and can be displaced by way of driving using the motor. The automatic train coupling according to the invention is characterized in that the drive connection comprises two parallel force paths which are configured in such a way that a first force path transmits drive force in a first rotational direction of the motor from the motor to the electric contact coupling, and a second force path transmits drive force in a second rotational direction which is opposed to the first rotational direction of the motor from the motor to the electric contact coupling.
