Most of my problems have been with McHenry or other plastic couplers. The inside of the knuckles on these couplers seem to be slightly convex, and when pulling a long train the couplers seem to have a bit of up and down motion, and they slip apart. Kadee's have seemed to solve the problem for me. You may find out where on your layout this is occuring. If it is only in one spot, check the flatness of the track on the top of the rails with a straight edge. If the uncoupling is happening where an uncoupler is, try increasing the speed of the train. Best of luck.
