You can store the data as a HoA (Hash of Array). The keys are "type pos" and the value is an array of ids. The number of ids in the array gives you the count. The ids themselves allow the original data line to be reconstructed.
The OP said, "Normally I would simply use an incrementing hash to detect duplicate entries, looking for any values >1". The code below is essentially that idea, except rather than incrementing a simple scalar, a new element is pushed onto an array.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
<DATA>; #throw way first line
my %ids; #Hash of Array "$type $pos" => @ids
while (<DATA>)
{
my ($id,$type,$pos) = split;
push @{$ids{"$type $pos"}}, $id;
}
foreach my $key (sort keys %ids)
{
next if @{$ids{$key}} == 1;
foreach my $id (@{$ids{$key}})
{
print "$id $key\n";
}
}

2 1 11
