A coupler structure for transcontinental railroad cars is proposed, the coupler structure being configured to increase the support strength of a duplex coupler while improving the durability of the coupler through distributing the load exerted thereon. The coupler structure includes a head unit having two different coupler forms integrated into a single body and a shank unit connected to a railroad car body while being coupled to the head unit. The shank unit includes a U-shaped head connector part and a securing part, the head unit being hinged to the head connector part and the securing part extending from a rear end of the head connector part and fixedly mounted on the car body. Supporting parts are projected from upper and lower surfaces of a rear end of the head unit, and supporting grooves receiving the supporting parts therein are formed on an inner surface of the head connector part.
