Edinborough is generally credited as being a larger cable car system
than Melbourne and was also under a single operator as far as I'm
aware.

I always thought Chicago had the biggest cable system, followed
closely by Kansas City and San Francisco--none of them were unified
systems though and again weren't in the Empire that was the criterion
that began this thread of discussion. Edinburgh was a contender
though, but it too wasn't a unified system until taken over by the
Corporation who then rapidly electrified the lot.
