Travelling north on the U79 from Dusseldorf Hbf and referring to the Stadtlinienplaene Dusseldorf PDF document, these are some sites you'll see along the way (with kind thanks to a friend for the translations):

• Hbf, an abbreviation for Hauptbahnhof, meaning main railway station so Dusseldorf Hbf and Duisberg Hbf are the Dusseldorf and Duisberg main stations respectively.
• Tonhalle - concert hall
• Flughafen - airport
• Kittelback - literally Kittel creek
• Kalkumer is one of Dusseldorf's well-known castles. Close by is the Florence Nightingale Hospital.
• Muhlenacker is mill, and the buildings indicate that fact
• Neuer Friedhof is New Cemetry
• Teich literally translates at pond. Froschenteick is two stops before St. Anna Hospital.
• Zielanzeiger - destination
